> Why doesn't it move the question to the other site and then make a stub link? More awful, user-hostile experience.

It's to teach the user where it belongs, so they don't make the same mistake again, by making them actually go through the action of going to the other site. Otherwise by auto-migrating it they'll learn to just keep posting on the wrong site and someone else will do the work for them.
