That is because the other questions are asked within emacs, but these questions are asked within the shell. Thus you need to mention RET. Also users feel bad that yes they can just hit RET, but aren't told it doing so equals y vs. n. Currently the question looks like there are only two choices, y or n and if the user doesn't pick one then they will just be asked again, which is not true.

Probably because it expects the user to type 'y RET', not just 'y'.
My guess is that we want the user to consciously type the response,
not just touch some random key and then "oops".
But I can only guess the reason; you are the best person to know why,
since you wrote that code back in 1992 or before, when keyboard.c was
first added to the Emacs version control. Here's how that code looked
back then:
printf ("Auto-save? (y or n) ");
fflush (stdout);
if (((c = getchar ()) & ~040) == 'Y')
Fdo_auto_save (Qnil, Qnil);
while (c != '\n') c = getchar ();
#ifdef VMS
printf ("Abort (and enter debugger)? (y or n) ");
#else /* not VMS */
printf ("Abort (and dump core)? (y or n) ");
#endif /* not VMS */
fflush (stdout);
if (((c = getchar ()) & ~040) == 'Y')
abort ();
while (c != '\n') c = getchar ();
printf ("Continuing...\n");
fflush (stdout);
init_sys_modes ();
As you see, both questions expect 'y RET' or 'n RET' as user response.
