That might be true but ASL states that

This seems completely unambiguous, so if we want to change any file in
any way, we must add a notice to that file to comply with the original
license terms (but not necessarily add a new license).

(In that regard the "Treatment of Third-Party Works" seems incomplete
as it is missing a clause that requires to comply with any rules
stemming from the original licenses.)

If we are required to add notices to most files anyway, why not add a
proper section that covers all cases and can be included right from
the beginning?
