It's true, the file extension don't matter when you include files in a php
file, but by default a *.inc file won't be parsed if it's directly accessed
example: http://www.example.net/myincludefile.inc
This can be a security issue if you store database login/passwords in a *.inc
file, which you should avoid to use any other extention than *.php, which will
be parsed on a php enabled server.
