Why can't I declare a public method in an interface?

Why doesn't the compiler like that I declare a public method in a class interface (this caused the error I got here .NET Class Interface, Inheritance and Library: error does not implement interface member).

Is it just because of syntax or because of something more fundamental ?

OK it's implicit but why would it hurt to make it explicit ?

c# .net

Thought it is for constants, I think this is what language designers were thinking why not to permit Public in interface.
