I suspect it has more to do with consistent UI design.
The terminal is an application, Applications are launched from the
Application menu.

doing. It's just legacy users who are already so use to it being
available the old way, and installing that nautilus-openterminal package
gives it back to us (though I have a surprising number of untitled
folders on my desktop ... ;)

I don't know the real reason, but I suspect it was UI design reasons.
