Control.
Apple has gone out of their way to fuck with the government trying to get data from people phones, I really don't think this was something done on purpose to help them.
The data has to be stored somewhere to be shown, so a temporary spot existing isn't a surprise. It almost sounds more like lazy developers not thinking the government could access the history that only gets purged after X amount of time, instead of continually being pruned.
No way, it's for the data collection.
They dont want to share it, that's right, but it's very much not done by accident.
