I know what's behind technically, with that question I'd rather meant what's

OSes I've used so far,
FreeRTOS is the only one to make this difference.
And in my view, passing the "fromISR" around up to portions of the code that
should be independent
of whether run from task or from ISR sometimes makes the code design worse.
I think you will find that ChibiOS does much the same. The reasoning as
I understand it is to keep ISR code paths as short as possible to
minimize latency in hard real time systems.
