Is there a specific reason glibc does this?
Yes.
Can it not have a set of patches, one per change, as is usual

Fedora glibc sources are from git, and the bit diff is just generated
diff between the upstream snapshot and corresponding Fedora snapshot,
sans a few Fedora-only directories (which are packaged as extra tarball).
