Everyone likes mixed taps lol. No one ever asked for separate taps to mix in the sink.

Some people just like to stick to what they know and grew up with them separate.Hot water systems are easily contaminated if not kept at a hot enough temperature (60-65c to kill Legionella) , some people still prefer them separate out of paranoia over that still too if the cold is used for drinking.

And just old houses, plenty of people won't spend out on a new sink for fittings for a mixer tap when what is there is working fine.

Split tap bathroom sinks are still made and still sell here.

Ok yea that’s all fair. I take it back. I’ve just lived in some split tap houses and was always annoyed by it.
