That's because you think about it as plain text. It isn't.
Basically, lines that start with @foo are directives, not text.
It could be somewhat surprising, because it otherwise looks very much
like plain text, but without those definitions of paragraph-start and
paragraph-separate, things would be much worse. E.g., copy this to a
text-mode buffer, then type M-q:
@itemize @bullet
@item
If the text consists of a special glyph, the glyph can specify a
particular face. @xref{Glyphs}.
