Well I think it's a combination of two things. Most days when I'm writing a web app or some other high level program I kind of chuck data about without thinking about it. When I put on my kernel dev hat or when I was working on SQL Server I spent all day making sure other me could throw data around haphazardly and not get stuck on a course-grained kernel lock or only hit 1/8 of the pipelines. Sometimes it's just too much to handle all at once, even if you know what you're doing in both domains.
