Why is there a recycle bin for each drive?

I’m assuming it has to do with the way data is stored and how “deleted” data is never truly deleted.

Is this true for other OSs, or just windows?

Because otherwise whenever you deleted a file it would have to be copied onto the drive where the recycle bin was. What if the file is really big? What if the recycle bin drive is full? Should the computer tell you that sorry, you can’t delete files until you delete some files?
