Uhhh... just to interject... But that may not always remain the case.
There is a possibility of the title rewrite adding a new input for
titles to the edit page. And with the similarities to the section title,
it may just end up splitting the setup into two inputs. One for the
title/section title and the other for a summary whatever the case.
Likely that the auto generated link to the section in the comment will
be coded to stay there instead of the current way which allows the user
to remove that.
So, ya, that's the current behavior, but remember there is always room
for improvement. In fact, adding a proper summary box to the Edit form
for sections might be an even better course of action than just saying
"The API won't allow custom summaries for sections because you can't do
that with the current edit page".

Why?
Because it's not possible through the UI and uses an auto-generated edit
summary. That's what section=new is pretty much about.
