I think it's of the same worldview as that which lists mayim and tal as
different liquids. We care about where water comes from.

(And longtimers here know that I would attribute both to the idea that
halakhah cares more about how the world causes gut reactions than how
the universe actually is scientifically. But you don't need to buy into
that in order to agree with the above comparison.)

Tir'u baTov!
