The font-lock face are different for historical reasons.

It says right there:

    -- Macro: defface face spec doc [keyword value]…
        This macro declares FACE as a named face whose default face spec is
        given by SPEC.  You should not quote the symbol FACE, and it should
        not end in ‘-face’ (that would be redundant).
