Some theme authors provide their own shortcodes for end-users to use that
are relevant to the theme and its uniqueness. I do not see a reason why

As noted by @_mfields, there are reasonable use-cases where these filters
are removed (and re-added) as well. I would lean much more to the INFO or
RECOMMENDED notice levels versus the show-stopper WARNING level, but then
again we can always add appropriately written themes to the exempt list as
needed.
