Someone with culinary expertise probably has a better explanation of this but I think it also has something to do with how tender the meat is and the fast cook time that comes with frying.
This is why beef that is fried is often tenderized. Chicken fried steak essentially is the same process in that that it is battered, floured, and fried. But the cut is often thin, pounded, rolled, and/or swissed beforehand.
