Because if taking a sick day cuts into vacation time, it incentivizes people to come into work when they've got the flu and get everyone else sick too. Which is worse for the company than just granting a few sick days without affecting vacation time.

In the former case, I would work from home and in the latter I would have to take a PTO. I guess the one big bucket works better for people in professions where they don't have to be in the office.
