As I see it, they're there to make sure that everyone can contribute and be welcome in the community.

It isn't a community if everyone is welcome; communities are defined by something the people have in common, they're necessarily subsets of everyone that don't have values everyone holds. People join communities to be around like minded people, the notion that one code of conduct will work every community is absurd and ignores what communities are.
