I don't know the history of SIRI and the dictate feature, but as with all large companies, it's possible that they were developed separately by two different teams, or one technology was acquired from another company. In a situation like this, it's possible that Apple would merge the two applications and source code, but this would be done only if Apple saw that they'd save some money in the long run with support costs. Oh, well, just my way of saying that I'm not surprised these two similar apps behave a bit differently.
