I don't know! It's just clear that you wouldn't byte-compile ELisp  
files just because GNU Emacs can do it. Since its faster to load byte- 
compiled files (see also Java or Python) its clear that they're used  
in preference of not byte-compiled files to load additional code. And  
since these are unreadable and don't contain any comments on the code  
they cannot be used for documentation uses as GPL demands.
