Sye van der Veen added the comment:

Consider a process that is terminated while writing a large .pyc file.  Currently a user can only fix this by deleting the .pyc file, which requires knowing where to look.  A developer can be expected to know this, but the end user of their application certainly would not.

.pyc files are a cache.  When your cache is corrupted, you recreate it.
