I think many authors hate default styles so much that they either prefer to just use <div> or they start their style sheet with resetting the defaults.
Since <header> is intended to be useful to make subheaders not appear in the ToC, the move from
<h1>Foo</h1>
<h2>Bar</h2>
to
<header>
<h1>Foo</h1>
<h2>Bar</h2>
</header>
shouldn't, IMHO, result in ugly borders that everyone has to nuke (compare with <img border=0>).
