 Actually I tend to agree with @desrosj

 from 4 years ago:

  requiring the parameter also requires the developer to make a conscious
 decision about where the image should be attached

 WP adds context to images and other uploads by saving the post they were
 uploaded to. This context can be used for many things like permission
 settings, etc.

 Imho would be nice to remind developers to add the post_ID for new uploads
 if possible.
