It is definitly an accident caused by NeXT acquisition, neither BeOS nor Copland had great plans regarding UNIX like support. And even in NeXTSTEP's case, that was a side effect of Steve Jobs wanting to go after the UNIX workstation market, the idea was to make it easier to sell NeXTSTEP into those clients, there is very little UNIX in Objective-C, or the related XXXXXXXKits.
