That’s because on Mac OS, there isn’t a 1:1 mapping of windows to processes. Instead, multiple windows of any given app are hosted by a single process which stays open when all windows have been closed to facilitate opening documents or new windows without pointlessly disposing of the existing process only to start another.
It’s been like that for the Mac’s entire existence. For someone who’s used Macs all their life, the Windows way is weird.
