Because noone forbids it? :-)
It does make sure you're sending correctly formatted messages,
even though the incoming one wasn't.
When you forward a message in Gnus, the message is decoded and put
into the message editing buffer. When it is recoded it will get
new MIME delimiters. It is possible to forward it in a way that
preserves the MIME delimiters, but this is not the default. Maybe
it should be though. Probably.
