Why are chat transcripts since 1.3 kept in .chatlog folders?

Why are chat transcripts since Adium 1.3 kept individually in .chatlog folders? Each .xml file is put into its own directory with a name ending in .chatlog. That's too many files nested in folders. Why not put them all in the same root directory?

The .chatlog file should be displaying as a bundle, that's a bug. Transparently it will also include images from direct IMs.
