The reason is simply that they were never intended/attempted to look the same
and they are produced by two different code paths. The curl -v output was
first done years before the CERTINFO functionality was added, and CERTINFO was
provided in a way that is intended and aimed for being easier to deal with
programmatically while the -v output is meant for human consumption.

Also: the curl -v output is likely to change again if you build curl with
another TLS backend.
