It's just inherited. Whether through negligence or changes in Qt over the years. *shrug*

And there's just no "real" pressing need to convert and potentially lose user-settings/plugins in an upgrade (or create a one-time script to copy stuff to the new location). Maybe someday it will change, but it's just not high on the list of priorities at the moment.
