I believe that decision was made in 1995, well before my involvement in
the project. I can't find any discussion of the choice in what was then
the development list. Changing that decision now would not be easy.
You do have the option of putting everything in /etc/krb5.conf and not
having a kdc.conf; the two files are both read by KDC-ish programs and
merged together.
