From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Probably because they were interested and wanted to know?
There is usually misunderstanding behind this type of questions. for example "why isn't ilike on macos where it is ~/.Trash" and then one has to explain what XDG_DATA_HOME is and why it makes sense for trash to be there (And that it doesn't have to do with the desktop environment as well).
Or op just lost something important thinking that the trash was somewhere else.
