Because some people don't want that behavior. Just highlight your books and do a bulk metadata download. Calibre will retrieve metadata for all the highlighted books and give you your "rough metadata" for all the books. Before you do this, decide if you want the author/title overwritten by default, and if not, turn off that default option in Preferences.
