Why are closed or migrated questions listed in the "related" box?

Looking at the downvoted question https://serverfault.com/questions/297473/unable-to-browse-hosted-site-on-server you can see on the right side the "Related" box. At the second item you find https://serverfault.com/questions/60880/coolest-web-site-name-closed.

Isn't it a stupid thing to relate a closed or migrated question to another question? It is not constructive to click on a link that leads you to a closed question. So they shouldn't be advertised in that way. Or am I totally wrong?
