Why do some sites list in their stylesheets the font-family again and
again for almost every style they use, even though it's exactly the same
font attributes being specified. This is also applies to font-sizes,
colour etc.

I think some of the time it's from programs like Dreamweaver that do
this automatically. I tend to create initial CSS files in DW when I'm
laying out / editing a page and then "clean them up" using Notepad.
Though I think (and appreciate being corrected if I'm wrong) that some
older browsers like NN4.7 etc. do not recognize the inheritance of fonts
in tables. That's why I leave them be, or at least in my separate NN
file, when checking in older browsers
