Why are sidewalks broken up into different squares?

Why wouldnt it make more sense for the sidewalk to be just one strip of concrete similar to how roads are made?

This is also not universal. In the UK for example, it’s common to see sidewalks made of concrete tiles ( 20-45cm a side and usually rectangular – that’s 8-18” on a side for the Americans among us), but it’s also common to see them as poured and rolled tarmac like the surface of a road, with a heavy stone/concrete piece as the outer edge to keep it in.
