Does this amuse you?

 This pronunciation salad reached us the same way as common law arrived.  It's a survival grab-bag of what has worked over the years.  It's not a result of putting a meritocracy in charge of running language, schools and public spaces.     

The credentialed like to harmonize everything with one or two of their own ideas.  The other viewpoint is pragmatic and accepts what has worked in the past and has room for what may work better in the future..   One will probably vote for Biden.  The other will probably vote for Trump.
