The blog post offers some clues: e.g. they're using Wayland on the Pi 4 and 5 but still X11 on lower devices. It's a tight coupling of hardware and software that means they can best tailor the experience to specific devices. Not everyone needs it but it's nice for newbies (and the Pi is intended to be very approachable) to get sensible defaults out of the box.
