Winrar is intended to be Windows-only. No idea why not 7z, except that it's a less universal system. Many programs can do zip; only 7zip can do 7z files. They went with the most common & accessible type of compression.

is like creating an mp3 player that only accepts wav format. Even today, an mp3 already is outdated.
No, it's like an mp3 player that doesn't play wav files, no matter how popular they are, even if they make smaller files with the same sound quality.
