One good reason is that if people beam your app, you can have the app install a default database. I do this with the "services" database for PageNOW!. While it added 2K or so to the app, it WAY cut down on tech support issues. The ROM apps do this as well (for default adress book, date book, etc entries). Just use DMCreateDatabaseFromImage.
