Probably because it was "common knowledge" in the peer group.  Why do we
call a quick fix a kludge, hack or duct taped?

"Gone Haywire" can be traced to lumbermen beleive it or not.

They had axes, saws and horses to harvest lumber in the woods.  Hay was
delivered to feed the horses.  It was baled with wire, so there was always
lots of scrap wire around.  Inevitably when something broke, hay wire was
used to fix it.  If you saw wire wrapped axe handles, hinges bound with it,
etc, etc it was a sign the camp was going downhill and about to pull up
stakes or go bankrupt.  I suppose now we might say gone duct tape.  Or a
rusty car gone bondo.
