Because the BATFE says so. Laws don't have to make sense but they are still the law.
MDC considers crossbows archery so...

MDC never said that to my knowledge, they just allowed them to be used during archery season. Just the same as they never said a pistol was a muzzleloader.

Mostly because it has a pistol grip, and no stock, making it designed to be fired one handed. Put a VFG (vertical fore grip) on it, and then it's no longer a pistol because it's been made to be fired two handed. Then you're getting into NFA territory, assuming you have a short barrel on it. It can get tricky.

Plenty of people thought I was wrong to put my 20" Bushmaster upper on my pistol for the Alternative Season, but it's perfectly legal. Barrel length doesn't matter.

Thanks Kurt, that's the explanation I was looking for. For once, length doesn't matter.

Seems the "opinions" remain fluid on the subject....

Based on this letter:
"It's safe to say that ATF is taking the position that firearms equipped with stabilizing braces need to have their overall length measured with the brace folded or to the end of the receiver extension if the brace is stationary and non-adjustable. Adding a vertical foregrip to a firearm that has an overall length of less than 26 inches results in the making of an AOW, which is subject to the National Firearms Act".

Yeah, they haven't like the braces since they came out. OAL is how they've chosen to mess with them.

Seems to muddy the water when the BTAF comes out with statements or opinion like the situation I posted. A lot of grey area on a topic that was considered black and white until this recent "opinion"........ What is sure to be a nightmare for gun owners is a wet dream for BATF and attorneys...
