Spotlight doesn't support anything other than files -- it can't
distinguish between the messages in an mbox file, for example.
Therefore, in order to have mail messages searchable
(distinguishable, really) in spotlight, they had to make mail use
separate files for storage.
Not saying that was a wise decision, just that it wasn't arbitrary.
