That wouldn't work reliably under Windows, either, as nobody knows anything about files and directories generically anymore.
(That's the reason why first the Windows explorer was suddenly sufficent enough and then almost completely disregarded)
A public folder on the same PC is way harder to explain than just telling your photo app to share it with your resident spying company/cloud provider, despite how wasteful the round trip is.
Not that that has anything to do with a discussion about the "unix way" as a special case or even superset of IDEs.
