Why do people have more CPU than GPU cooling

I've wondered why you NZXT Kraken builds with a 120mm AIO watercooler on the GPU and a 240mm AIO on the CPU because the GPU is easily the hottest component in your system?

Yeah I know that the CPU needs to run at lower temps but they just run cooler anyway because I was messing about and put my 240mm AIO on my GPU and it was running at about 50deg C (Welsh weather helped keep it low!) and when that was on my CPU it would run at about 35deg C - 40deg C so it ran quite a bit cooler so I thought it would make more sense to to have a 240mm on the GPU because my GTX 760 was boosting to about 1250mhz and with the 240mm it boosts to about 1350mhz and gave me a nice FPS boost so I've left it in that config and I don't understand why other people don't do that
