That would be useless because the parameters are not parsed at this point.
I personally find this early printk very useful for the reason Ingo noted earlier (you know you're already past the boot loader). And that can be very useful in debugging. Even for that that anonymous "quiet" person who posted earlier. Two are not needed though.
