Probably because they were made by American car manufacturers and couldn't make a logical or consistent design decision if their lives depended on it.

Like I'm not even an engineer and I'm just screaming about the dumbest decisions made by people who make more in a week than I make in a year 😭

The last one I ran into is that the Windshield Washer Fluid Reservoir in a Chevy Bolt is about 1/4 cup smaller than a standard 1 gallon jug of fluid. You could have expanded the diameter of the fill tube by less than 1/8 of an inch and fit that remaining 1/4 cup of fluid in there.
