Probably because it's made into a buffer-local variable in eshell buffers:

(defun eshell-var-initialize ()
  "Initialize the variable handle code."
  ;; Break the association with our parent's environment.  Otherwise,
  ;; changing a variable will affect all of Emacs.
  (unless eshell-modify-global-environment
    (set (make-local-variable 'process-environment)
     (eshell-copy-environment)))
  [...]
