Possibly because British royalty is very well-defined, and can be used
to explain other, even fictional, royalty. We can examine Arendelle
and notice that, even though most Queens Consort would be addressed
equivalently to a Queen Regnant, their Queen Consort is addressed
equivalently to a princess. (She's addressed as Highness as she
embarks on her last sea voyage.)

Why do I know so much about the Arendelle royal family? Hmm.
