It is sega. They just do things that don't make sense. Also, that is a pretty negative view on it: I for one found it decently funny. It is just a different direction to appeal to newer generations with a better go-to approach. It is Sonic, but just a new direction for Sonic which is something that may take some time getting used to. Besides, it is a kids show, it was never meant to be taken seriously to begin with. Think of this as the casual Sonic adventures: we never get those.
