Follow-up Comment #3, bug #16597 (project freeciv):

This is a left over from the time when the client saw all the map (or at
least a lot!). There used to be people with modified versions of the client
which could see the units of enemy cities before making an attack...
Then, some folk volunteered to make the modifications as to make the server
send only the right information to the client.
