Comment (by Nazgul):

 There are still a lot of HTML 4.x themes out there which won't like it if
 we put a self-closing tag in there, because they will fail validation.
 We'd have to differentiate between HTML and XHTML.

 On the other hand, it's "free" advertisement for WordPress, because as it
 is now, it depends on the theme if they include the generator tag or not.
