Probably because, when I first learned to do this stuff, the system I
used did have a -a option to cp, but did have rsync installed.  And
now it's more muscle memory than anything.  (I'm almost to the point
where I can tell kids to get off my lawn.)

Also, one can do:
find . -depth | grep -v filter | cpio

And filter out some troublesome files.
