It's not supposed to functionally differ. It's supposed to create some better consistency and make it easier for devs to differentiate between different REST methods when retrieving data. If REQUEST_METHOD is PUT, then I can set the parsed params to the value of $_PUT. The aliases match the methods used, making the code that much more readable and scalable.
For that to be consistent, you would need to unset $_GET on POST requests, which would be ... unhelpful.
GET and POST are simply the *wrong names*. Naming more things based on them is just engraining a mistake.
