This is simply the normal behavior for file-system-based Java installations, 
such as those on Windows, Linux, Solaris, and Mac.  No surprise, since Android 
is built on a Linux core (well, GNU OS, I suppose I should say).

While it is not true that anything or anyone "insists" on using a reasonable 
package structure, or to utterly eschew the default package, it's awfully 
foolish to build anything other than toy examples in the default package. 
That's why the very strong bias is to the best practice of non-default 
packages for all types.  You should follow that practice.
