Citrus plants usually require well draining soil, but they also need a lot of water. Wouldn’t it make more sense if the container held the right amount of water?

It would – if you only think in terms of water.
Unfortunately, plants need air, too, to get that sweet, sweet CO2. They get that via the roots. Some plants need a lot of air, and those ones want well draining soil, because when the water drains out, it is replaced by air from above.
