I find that ridiculous. Is there a reason why it's that way?

It's been around since the beginning of time itself I guess. You can try something like dnsmasq. One liner in the conf file: address=/.facebook.com/127.0.0.1
edit: For Ubuntu this should work (one versions from Trusty and newer):
sudo touch /etc/NetworkManager/dnsmasq.d/local
Put these lines into the above file and save:
address=/.facebook.com/127.0.0.1
address=/.fbcdn.net/127.0.0.1
address=/.tfbnw.net/127.0.0.1
