Not every device has $HOME on same partition as / (for example most of Zaurus devices). And as those files ends in package what will happen if user will change file in $HOME and then package will overwrite it with other contents? What with users other then root?

I know that in your situation most of those reasons are nothing to worry about but this is why we do not touch anything in $HOME.
