The problem with that is that it involves extra work (possibly significant
extra work, if we want to use the effect on other screenshots on the
site), because every time the screenshot is changed, someone will have
to produce a new "reflection" graphic.  It also increases the vertical space
needed for each image to which it's applied by around 1/3, and might
require moving or removing the "More screenshots" link (you'll notice
that your sample image does not have text directly below it).
