I don't think it's an inconsistency. Quoting from
http://tempdocs.cakephp.org/ :
"The set() method also takes an associative array as its first parameter.
This can often be a quick way to assign a set of information to the view.
Note that your array keys will be inflected before they get assigned to the
view ('underscored_key' becomes 'underscoredKey', etc.):"
Perhaps the reason is,
Array keys may have underscored names (often we get array from models/tables
and usually table fields have underscored names)
And we commonly use camelCased variable names in our views/controllers. So,
to make this transition smooth I think it is done in this way..
