I believe this cc list comes from patman which calls get_maintainer.pl
to get the cc list.
get_maintainer.pl determines the person names from 1. MAINTAINERS of
the changed file 2. git commit history of the changed file.

I can see the philosophy was that someone who touched the changed file
should be copied for review.
We certainly could argue that and just get the list solely from the
MAINTAINERS file.

Regards,
Bin
