From what little exposure that I've had to IBM, Oracle, and professional HP products, it's the result of a different evolutionary line of computing. It predates personal computing (from back when there was allegedly market for 5 computers[0]), so its interface and naming conventions are foreign to each other, as if it lives in ivory towers and never mixes with anything else. It's painfully obvious that personal computing moves much faster and is easier to use.
