Maybe, and just maybe, because kmail allowed for mixed maildir and mbox, which 
I took advantage of, using mbox for archival purposes reducing the number of 
files around my file system. A regular maildir doesn't allow this.
Also, I think they didn't want to copy possibily huge amounts of data during 
the migration, but you can if you want to. As I said I suppose you can move 
your old mail where you want it to be with drag & drop of entire folders and 
maybe entire subtrees, haven't tried.
