Replying to nacin:
Because wp-includes is a core WordPress directory that should never have modifications, it's quite obvious what files will be there. Blocking these kinds of directories is rather useless.
It could prevent unnecessary crawling by search engines on misconfigured servers.
This is a duplicate of #18546, though.
