It's actually C's "fault":  everything Windows does in text mode is 100%
fine by the C standard.  Indeed, as OSes go, Windows is relatively sane
here.  Notwithstanding that Linux is saner, at least from the POV of
developers.  The mass of OSes in which text mode is radically different than
binary mode are arguably saner and safer for end users.
