It happens because cybersecurity teams do not design for efficiency and believe that security trumps everything else. If they understood that security, just like anything else, is there to drive the business, they'd perhaps sit down with people doing the work. And then figure out how hard it is to share a simple file or a photo, take it to the print shop as one can't plug in their private USB stick, or how annoying it is to develop Linux IoT firmware on WSL, or how annoying it is to get logged out every 2h.
Because unless you do, people will adopt behaviour that makes them productive, and instead of increasing security, your policies will drive it down.
This is not a result of "bad employees": this is a result of bad security policies.

And talking from experience: these secure practices starting to approach at least hour of productive time everyday, which is literally robbing time
