This was done because the codec state is part of the return value of tell(). To have a reasonable return value (i.e. one with just the position itself) in as many cases as possible it makes sense to design the codec state in such a way, that the most common state is 0. This is what was done for py3k: The default state (no BOM read/written yet) is 2 not 0.
