I would guess it is for the same reason that a lot of people put 4-way joysticks on their control panels. You could argue they don't need that either.

Does the software method have the same "feel" as if the joystick were 4-way? I just played Ms. Pac Man with these settings and it was still difficult to control, but that could just be because I'm not used to the joystick yet.
