Why does Windows makes changing executable's icons so damn hard?

I’m aware this has been the case since Windows 3.x, you always need an external program to ensure the executable is created with the icon you want. Why?

Please no mentions of Linux and other OSs, I know it’s trivial to do so for them.

Create a shortcut and choose your icon.
