I was also wondering why files like Python/graminit.c are in the respository? They generate spurious merge conflicts.
Convenience mostly.
It also gets us a round a couple of bootstrapping problems, where generating some of those files requires a working Python interpreter, which you may not have if you just cloned the source tree or unpacked the tarball.
We could distribute the generated files in tarballs as part of the release process.
