In my opinion, it's because Elecraft is more tuned in to users.  Elecraft's
owners and many of their staff are active hams.  They also directly monitor
lists such as this one for user input (and respond accordingly).  Elegant
simplicity of design focused on real user needs is always a winning
combination (e.g. Apple comes to mind).  Kenwood came closest to this with
the TS-930S but lost their way with succeeding models (although the TS-590S
is a nice step in the right direction).

73,  Bill  W4ZV
