Why do you think that "must be"?  Project Gutenberg is run by 
Michael Hart.  Who else should answer your questions?  A strong 
disclaimer doesn't always have a strong reason.

When we digitize old (Scandinavian) encyclopedias, magazines, and 
other printed works in Project Runeberg, we never had to alter the 
title, but always reproduced the title as it was printed.  There 
seems to be no risk that readers should confuse the old issues 
with the current product.

E.g.:
Old http://runeberg.org/svlartid/1891/0005.html
new http://www.lararnastidning.net/

Old http://runeberg.org/tekuke/1883/0007.html
new http://tu.no/

Old http://runeberg.org/tektid/1871/0005.html
new http://nyteknik.se/

Old http://runeberg.org/ab/0001.html
