Because that's how English works.
You can drive a Tesla, own an Andy Warhol, and jailbreak a John Deere.
- naikrovek 4y agoTesla makes one thing: automobiles. Andy Warhol made one thing: paintings. John Deere makes many things: tractors, lawn mowers, displays, harvester combines, excavators, and many more things, including stuff that works in non-john Deere vehicles. "jailbreak a John Deere what"
- dmitriid 4y ago> Andy Warhol made one thing: paintings. Andy Warhol made: - paintings - photos - collages - marketing illustrations - films > "jailbreak a John Deere what" Doesn't matter. And doesn't make it improper English.

It’s also so bizarrely pedantic that this whole thread is hilarious. You need to chill. “Chill what? It doesn’t make any sense! How can anyone understand that!! How does my core body temperature have any bearing in the point I’m desperately trying to make about how I don’t understand colloquialisms!!!”
