#howcome — Public Fediverse posts

I feel like I haven't heard the phrase "how come?" when "why/why not" would work just fine, for quite some time. Enter these newish episodes of Law and Order, and I've heard it used at least 5 different times. Is this a phrase that has some kind of legal backstory, maybe it goes to a person's motivation for doing something in a different way than "why/why not"?
It feels like lazy writing but I'd love to know otherwise!
#HowCome

With Ronnie's role with the Faces now just a memory, the co-founder of both that group and its predecessor the Small Faces, was now striding out into new territory...
