This was intentional, the result of Jean-Marc's and my understanding of what belongs under the LyX menu on Mac. (In addition, standard practice on Mac is to put Preferences and About under the application menu, so we have LyX > Preferences and LyX > About LyX.) Because this has been this way for at least 5 years, it should not be changed now without a very good reason. Perhaps the manual can be updated to reflect these differences on Mac. BH
