As near as I can tell, it's one of three reasons. 1) They think they 
know "better" than KDE, 2) They wish to distinguish themselves from 
other distros, and 3) They wish to somehow "autoupdate" the menu when 
new items are added. The last is perfectly reasonable, but I have seen 
more than one instance of the former two.

Because I prefer FreeBSD. Don't ask me why, because that would take an 
essay length response, and it would only apply for me. Linux is not the 
only UNIX or Unix-like system that KDE runs on, it's merely the most 
popular.
