I think it's because of Windows
Authored by: JM44236 on Mar 31, '02 07:27:47PM

IIRC, a slash is not allowed in file names on the Windows platform. Since MS has made a big deal of having transparent compatibility for Office across Mac and Windows, it makes sense that they don't allow a forbidden Windows character in a Macintosh file name.
