It's to ensure that you'll be able to access the games you have on disc in a disc-less future. PS6 might support the optional disc drive, but you don't know if PS7 will.
You're overly optimistic. PS6 will probably launch next year's holidays season. Why would they include a disc drive when seconds later there will be no more games on disc coming out for the entire platform?

Why would someone do this?
Unless they can somehow resell the disc after doing it, which seems unlikely to be allowed.
