It isn't.

You're wrong. You don't have to set focus. I'm sure you'll find many Usenet
articles that explain this - telling how setting focus can actually harm
rather than help.

It's only a tiny little bit of JS

The size isn't significant, at least for this particular task.
Automatically putting focus on some text field is a bad idea more often
than not. The slower the page loads, the less happy your visitors will
be about it.
