Puppy's Filesystem is...weird?

I've tried Puppy Linux on an ancient laptop. I was immediately impressed by the super fast speed of...well...everything!

However, when I opened the file manager, I noticed that the file system structure was MUCH different from the usual organization I'm used to seeing, in practically all *nix systems. Can anybody explain the point of this different filesystem approach?

Here's a little bit of information from the Puppy website.
