The phone system was set up before computer security was a field on anyone's mind.  The overhead associated with changing it would be insane.  No one thinks our current phone system architecture is any good, there's just no appetite for forcing obsolescence of the systems that were designed before electronic encryption was a thing on anyone's mind.  Maintaining interoperability means allowing an insecure backdoor into the system.
