Why does it say (when asking a question on AB) that your question may be edited for spelling or grammar when it is obvious that never happens?

Because there is a chance that it juuuust might, and instead of not saying it and having someone offended they choose the "better safe than sorry" route.

They wanted to fill up the space or it wud look empty right?

Maybe because so many are coming in so fast - just a thought

That's a holdover, basically, from AB 1.0 when the staff routinely edited questions for clarity, spelling, and grammar. Back then, questions flowed into ABHQ once in a while, not at the frentic pace they storm in now. I can see why that disclaimer is still present, though. Fact is, the staff can and does edit questions sometimes - if a user gives feedback about those questions.
