Indeed, "useless" is not an appropriate word for the matter, but the issue is
valid - those files should really disappear _from /usr/lib/*_
I think it's better to not have them at all rather than scattered wherever
on the filesystem.
As Ville said, if you want to keep them, move them in %docdir. Farther, if
you do that, than place those demo files there too, they should be useful too :)

OTOH, do you remember any redhat/fedora perl package that includes
changelogs? They don't even include the license :|

If you want to fix this, then add this line to the %files list:
    %doc Artistic AUTHORS Changes* Copying README

And this to %install or something:
    # wanna have them, but compressed though ;-)
    %{__gzip} Changes*
