Because someone packaged them, and someone uses (installed) them. Whether it is easy to find on the web, is irrelevant, as there are still people who are not connected 24/7, and prefer to install a package, and read it offline. And having them in Debian means that I can just do an apt-get install, instead of hunting through thousands of results on google. Also, it is your opinion that they do not correspond to open source's philosophy. Someone else might feel otherwise. (Following this argument, I could say that fancy stuff like GNOME or KDE hurt the open source community, because they don't force users to write and contribute code - as would be the True Free Software Way. This argument would be just as flawed as yours.) That is why they're in.
