It's to keep Netscape 4 from loading the CSS2 stylesheets, freaking out, and becoming completely unusable because it thinks it knows CSS2 but was so woefully bad at it that it just messes everything up.
In these days where Netscape 4 is pretty much dead, we might consider dropping that -- at least if there actually *is* a measurable improvement to doing so.
It would be nice if there were some other way to scare off browsers that don't understand CSS2.1 even enough to justify fixes files.
