I'm guessing someone thought that if they depend'ed lots of other targets on this one, and the 'if' wasn't satisfied, then those other targets wouldn't get run. But I don't think that's the way Ant behaves. But Ant never works how I expect, even after years of banging my head against it... so I'd have to try a mock/demo project (full of echo tasks) to really see what was happening. So that's just my guess.
