Being proud of having the most weirdly aggressive word for 20 on the European continent so you make up extra excuses to say it more often. Just French Things.
The English have "eleven" and "twelve" instead of onety-one and onety-two so YOUR smug language is also full of weird inconsistencies, so there. I'm not saying French doesn't suck but at least WE suck TOGETHER, you don't get to ride a high, judgmental horse
English technically has the same sort of construct with "score" (as in "four-score and seven years ago...") it's just archaic and now "score" in that sense seems to only be used as a sort of fuzzy mass counting number for amounts that are bigger than "dozens" but less than "hundreds."

They also use "four twenty ten" for ninety as well. Sicko language.
