Probably because those people haven't read the FAQ entry:

        What traps are sent by the agent?

particularly the part that says:

    Similarly, it does not generate traps by default when one of the
  monitored characteristics (disk usage, running processes, etc) enters
  or leaves an error state.

The same FAQ entry goes on to say:
 
                This can be configured using the 'defaultMonitors'
  config directive (also documented under DISMAN-EVENT-MIB).  Note that
  these facilities are only available with the v5 Net-SNMP agent, and are
  not supported by the v4 UCD agent.
