My guess would be because CMake generates .sln file for each project() call (e.g. if you have additional project() calls in subdirectories apart from the top-level one), and then for each .sln file it would be possible to specify different startup [VS] project. So it's not exactly a directory, but a project property I would say, but there're no "project properties" in CMake.
