I think a lot of courses use them as a sort of get out clause. If they have the rule in place it makes it a lot easier for them to not allow someone to play if they are deemed undesirable. Not needed for 95%+ of visitors but makes their job easier for that small minority.
Personally have no issue with a course asking for them, its up to them if they want to restrict the visitors they get but as has been said, some do it at the detriment to their business
