I think it's so that you can get the mixer bar level even if the wall
connections aren't - and if a different plumber did the first fix they
may not have worried too much about 1/8" discrepancy which it's
impossible to correct once the wall has been plastered and tiled.

To digress slightly, one housebuilder I came across in my BCO days
made carpenters put their initials on door linings - and he who fixed
the lining had to hang the door. Somehow the linings were always fixed
straight and true first time g

Taking responsibility for your own work? Surely not!

What use will the manual of '1001 excuses and who to blame' be then?

Only kidding - I think that's a great idea.
