My guess: for backwards compatibility. I bet you also still get that oh so useful "Windows made this file for you" text file if you use a traditional Windows solution template.
For those unfamiliar with this issue: if you include Windef.h (directly or indirectly) you get what the platform provides. That file by default defines min and max macros. To prevent that, define NOMINMAX before including the windows header (in the source, or as a command line argument to the compiler). (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/143208)
