Not to defend Google, but it has nothing to do with shame and everything to do with marketing.

If you read the URL as a sentence supportsmallbiz.withgoogle.com = Support Small Biz With Google

They could have done smallbizzwith.google.com but are hiding it and they will pretend that it doesn't exist once they shut down the site. We've seen this already a few time at various companies.

How is that any more hidden? Unless you already know the subdomain in the first place, the domain doesn't really make much difference.
