For two reasons:

Connecting to server via HTTPS doesn't mean the target file was not tampered with and checking checksum can prevent it
If target file is either "in middle of uploading" or incomplete for some other reason (corrupted disk etc.) it should not load it.

There are ways to provide checksum, but it's rather cumbersome. This is the reason there's a type/provider replacement: https://github.com/puppet-community/puppet-archive
