Although I wasn't a moderator when the system was set up, I believe I know why it was done in that manner. To some, "likes" don't mean much, while others look at them as a popularity contest or some kind of justification system. In truth, they are merely a system to tell someone you liked their post and nothing more. If a person could give a "like" repeatedly, there would be nothing stopping them from forming another user ID and giving themselves untold numbers of "likes". Another scenario would be two people doing the same thing for each other.
The system isn't fool proof, but then very few things are. Encouraging people to give likes to more than one person forces us to look at other people's posts and works, and I believe that is good.
OP: Steve, I hope this helps you understand why the system is set the way it is, and that you reconsider leaving.
