If I recall correctly, it has nothing to do with logic, and everything
with (German) law.

Once a provider's server accepts an email message, it is illegal
for the provider to delete that message. By forwarding SPAM they
would risk messing up their non-spam repoutation. So they forward
it only from a sacrificial server that has a bad reputation.
