Putting this right in the header enables other application types to deal with robots, but for a html document it doesn't make any difference.
Do you mean that adding the X-Robots in the .htaccess file instead does not work for HTML files? I hope not!

Google & Yahoo Crawlability

I will show you why: View HTTP Request and Response Header

The question about actual benefits of it deserves a new thread.
I never doubted that PR sculpting works. As a Web Architect I just consider the way it is presented all over the place as insufficient.
