The primary reason why you should not leave a campfire smoldering is because it has some probability that it will re-ignite when you are not around. The fact that you are not around is wherein the danger lies as if you were around, you could put it out to prevent it from spreading and becoming a forest fire.
There are certain conditions you should be especially careful about leaving your campfire not doused. Prevailing dry conditions are especially dangerous as the surrounding vegetation will be quick to catch on fire if a stray ember finds its way to some kinder-ling.
Another dangerous condition is if strong wind is blowing. The wind will provide sufficient oxygen to keep the fire alive and hence a threat.
So always be responsible and make sure your fires are completely dead before leaving a location. Good practices would include burying the remnants of the fire (so it cannot spread) or killing it completely by pouring water on it.
