Answer:

The reason is due to proprietary design of the Operating System (OS) which require a virtualization software to blanket or "disguise" the hardware (processor) borderlines of the computer onto which it is to be installed.

Explanation:

An Apple system that has the RISC processor and system architecture which has an operating system made entirely for the Apple system architecture

If the above Apple OS is to be installed on a windows computer, then the procedure to setup up the OS has to be the same as that used when on an Apple system, hence, due to the different processors and components of both systems, a virtualization will be be needed to be provided by a Virtual box, Parallels desktop or other virtualization software.
