I believe this is a (happy) legacy from Rails. In rails, if you don't spend effort to undo, you get URLs that match your database setup in a RESTful way. For me, that's far to tight coupling, and problematic in other ways. But the result is that without thinking about it, without a second of time spent on designing an URL structure, you get a very nice, consistent and clean one for free.
