Why would that happen?

These tags are only used during initial submission.

That doesn't happen either.

Nothing wrong with adding these tags IMHO. It's what they're for.

I use them when I'm maintaining a large amount of out-of-tree, but
to-be-upstreamed patches over several versions. Re-applying the
recipients list can become pretty labour-some after several
iterations.

Adding them under the '---' doesn't work when the purpose of them is
to keep the recipients list in Git history.
