Found it:

"Since BSS is not initialized, we must not care about it now, but what
about DATA? DATA contains initialized data, that is, data that was
explicitly assigned a value. And your program will rely on these
values on startup. Since there's no other way to remember the contents
of the data segment, than storing it into one of the ROMs, we have to
put it there. But unfortunately, ROM is not writable, so we have to
copy it into RAM before running the actual code."
