That's why. like leftybogs said. it's still crawlable. and this was used by SE to snippet words, when it comes to ranking.

crawlable,, but less weight.. anyways,, it will not do harm to your site if you put meta tags,,,, unless you stuffed keywords..

how come it makes your work easier?
meta keywords still help in some point but this can't give a big boost on serp

meta tags can also remind you about your keywords. it coul'd still help, but not like before...
