Why?

You can always configure as you wish.  Take a look at:

/etc/default/tmpfs

There you can configure TMPFS_SIZE and TMP_SIZE, which are the ones
asked for.  And if you definitely don't want to use tmpfs, then you
can RAMTMP=yes as you suggested.

I think this is a matter of configuration, and we all might want
different settings for our purposes, :-)
