It's a default on some distros, unfortunately, and changing it without updating the necessary env vars will break a bunch of stuff.

Doesn't Ubuntu do this? I use Ubuntu inside WSL and it bugged me so fucking much

It would be a default on almost every distro that follows XDG specifications to have stuff like Downloads, Pictures, Videos in the $HOME folder. One of the first things I do as part of an installation is to modify ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs and set a specific folder, say /data/downloads or ~/downloads, for every XDG base directory.
