Ah, bingo.

Almost 10 years ago, when GNOME started, we had like three apps we
wanted to put in the menus.  So, reading .desktop files from disk didn't
seem like a bad idea.

Now that we have hundreds of .desktop files, it is not a good idea
anymore to have them scattered all around the disk.  You are absolutely
right; the system it is built on is stupidly inefficient and broken!
