I think it's as simple as those who designate genres and groupings seeing SF and fantasy both as "not real," and therefore can be grouped together.

I agree with Harry's assessment of horror being an "orthogonal" genre; adventure falls into the same category, often retaining the overriding adventure label even when it includes SF or fantasy elements (as example, the Indiana Jones movies).
