Why is Genius under Store in iTunes?

The option to turn Genius on is under the 'Store' menu heading in iTunes. Why? Presumably because Genius is used to recommend songs with the desired goal being that you purchase them, hence it being a store-related activity. This categorisation seems to be based on an Apple related goal/concept of Genius, rather than a user goal/concept. Having Genius under Store makes little sense when one is thinking about Genius mixes and playlists.

I love my iPhone. iTunes? Not so much...
