There are sometimes good reasons to do this, IMO. I like to add the website for hotels and guesthouses because the data consumer then can optionally use the information to help users. Websites often have comprehensive contact information as well and that means OSM mappers needn't worry about its currency or validity. We can safely assume the owners will update the website info as needed which cannot be said for the casual OSM mapper or end user.
