Because it's natural.

It's *sometimes* the best way to convey the data processing pipeline. 
It's the connection between separate parts that needs to be conveyed.

Furthermore, inventing artificial names is sometimes not the best way. 
So, I think the behavior you've described can be explained quite easily.

Best,
Sven
