Why can't the Photoshop Pen tool be more like the Illustrator Pen tool?

I've been a long-time Photoshop user since PS07. I really wish the pen tool in photoshop behaved much like the pen tool in Illustrator. It is often difficult to create precise curb lines in Photoshop because the handles don't behave anything similar to Illustrator. I can further explain if an Adobe representative responds to this post. Thank you
