The reason is so the debugger can know intrinsicly exactly where the SOURCE 
is so it can pull up the offending line and show it to you.  See ma the bug is 
right here!

If the debugger must read the VOC and hope that you catalogued the program 
globally so the absolute path is present there, or hope you didn't move the 
object to a new file or hope you didn't fiddle and diddle than all hope is lost 
and the sky crumbles around us.
