The rationale is that there is a lot of good articles posted there that
would get promoted to the frontpage. Such as the PWN, but that's just
one of many examples. It also "brings life" to the page because there is
a list of content that actually changes reasonably often.
While it's certainly not "random individuals", you definitly have a
point in that it's unchecked.
