Why do people do this? Readmes and nfo files take up literal kilobytes.... even over hundreds or even thousands of downloads, at most it's going to take up a few extra megabytes of download/storage, they're not saving anything at all. And it can be nice when the nfo includes all the releaser's original encode settings and stuff.

true, but my jellyfin server doesn't care. if i didn't want it, i would've unselected it when importing the torrent.

Wouldn't that still leave the user waiting unless they too unselected it?

Why do I need to know that “Torrent was downloaded from TheSiteINeverVisited.nfo”? It's just extra noise I don't need.
