My question is this: Why do these keys have as their binding
`self-insert-command'?

Because that is the binding for all characters of that group.

I hear
you saying that they are not valid keys, and you can't use them with
`self-insert-command', and you can't use them (their descriptions) with
`read-kbd-macro' - so why bind them to `self-insert-command'?

Because doing so binds every character within that character group to self-insert-command without having to bind several thousand characters individually.

and no one would have the problems of using keys with `self-insert-command' and 
their descriptions with
`read-kbd-macro'
What problems? These are not real keys, why would someone try to use them with read-kbd-macro?
