It's just how damage types and armor classes work. Normally a ranged unit has some pierce damage and no melee damage (not quite the same as 0 melee damage). But Chu Ko Nus and Kipchaks do an additional 0 melee damage with their attacks. This has no effect on most units, but since Rams and Siege Towers have -3 and -2 melee armor, respectively, they take extra damage from it...
