Because they can't be byte-compiled -- that's why they're marked as
such.  :-/

(There's a separate bug report about that somewhere.)

So we're really using no-byte-compile for two reasons: 1) To say that we
don't think it's useful to byte-compile something or 2) because we know
that it's impossible.
