For the same reason why the Unix rtl is not a Windows emulation. We are

If only that was true... I can highlight a few places where Windows
emulation is used rather that pure multi-platform implementation.  :-/

Most cases are out of Delphi/TP compatibility reasons. We cannot throw that overboard.

But nothing stops people from developing an alternate RTL, free of
windows-isms, and preferably 100% OOP :-)
