If you installed the HTML version of Oracle documentation, then go to Networking > Understanding SQL*Net.
tnsnames.ora tells Oracle how to find databases. Like a road map. On a client, it must list all databases the client wants to connect to. On the server, it must list all remote databases it needs to connect to (i.e., for replication, etc.) and it is not uncommon to also list local databases.
