"%userprofile%\Saved Games" exists, but most games that i've seen don't use it by default, or even can't use it due to its own shortcomings.

Yeah, ultimately the issue is probably more about an attempt to go from a completely unmanaged file system where it was just big free for all with the hope everyone would behave nicely to a more managed design that still needed to maintain backwards compatibility with the old system where there were a slew of programs that depended on a bunch of undocumented behavior.
