Because the two parties find it in their mutual interest to make it so.
The Microsoft license you refer to is not written into law: it is what
Microsoft choses to offer and you chose to accept.  You are free to
negotiate different terms.  The same goes for the "work for hire" rule: it
applies only in the absence of other arrangements.  Your law would deny me
the right to negotiate any other arrangement with my employer than the one
the State has decided is best.

Whenever anyone says in this context "This law will guarantee that your
right to X will not be taken away" they are really saying "This law will
take away your right to Y".

The right to freely enter into contracts is an essential liberty.
