I guess I'm lucky enough to never have seen that class in code I've seen. :)

That seems like typical Microsoft object-orientation. It's not really much of encapsulation. Reminds me of MFC :-/

Actually Microsoft started by developing a C++ library with lots of OO in the design.

However not everything went as they expected and people were also demanding something more light over Win16 and MFC was born.
