Hello!

I stored a .psd file in <project>\files folder to make a .png file, which is stored as asset in the apk-file. Even this file is not added/selected in the projects file list, it is included in the apk-file. The apk-file was round 40MB with the psd file in <project>\files. If a removed this file, the apk-file was round 2MB as before!

OK - but why i need the files tab in the IDE, if all files are included in the asset?

The files are supposed to be managed from the IDE. All the files are packed as a result of how the Android packager works. This is why there is a warning for that.

There are some features that will only work with the files added with the IDE.

Shorter answer: it could have been designed differently, but the current design is also reasonable
