Because the Tomcat/Jakarta projects are a part of the Apache Foundation, but the Tomcat Server is not the same thing as the Apache Web Server.

Apache is a web server. Tomcat is a JSP/Servlet engine. Apache by itself has no mechanism to process the JSP or servlet request and must delegate these to Tomcat and return the result. Tomcat does have limited ability to act as a web server, however it does not offer the performance, scalability, or control that Apache will.
