Maybe you should be. They could be in the air by the time you arrive.
It's also a hint as to the runway in use.

Let's see. You claim transmissions on the ground don't contribute to
frequency clutter because those approaching the airport can't hear them,
and now you expect me to be listening for transmissions that I can't
hear?

When I'm approaching to enter the pattern, my primary concern is traffic
in the pattern or likewise approaching the pattern. Traffic on the
ground is irrelevant. If a guy in the pattern is using a different
runway than the guy on the ground, I follow the guy in the pattern. I
worry about the aircraft holding short of the runway when I'm on final.
