If the deleting staff member said why they deleted it would eliminate having to ask them and waiting for a reply. And of course, not being an idiot I'm sure the uploader would ask them for such an explanation.

The point is that the Terms of Use specify multiple reasons, potentially none of which might apply to the deletion in the opinion of the uploader. Knowing which particular reason was thought to be violated would help in deciding whether and how to appeal the deletion.
