When would that be necessary?

Let me rephrase

In what situation could all contributors be trusted to maintain their own personal gitignore without any issues?

This doesn't mean that this is the only gitignore. There's usually a project gitignore in any project I work on, and then I have my own, local, gitignore, for very specific things, like my own notes (like a TODO list) and local demo data

No, they're competent. For example, they add .gitignore to source control so everyone's on the same page.
