Because as stated in the commit in manpath which adds share/man for localbase,
it fixes an inconsistency between localbase and base:

https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/commit/usr.bin/man?id=61d5f2d1627eeb6d7f33a7b4f6809b674a95a1b5

While no plan has been set in stone for the ports tree, it would be nice to
slowly switch from localbase/man to localbase/share/man for the entire ports
tree in order to be able to drop the localbase/man in the futur.

(the same would apply to localbase/info vs localbase/share/info)
