That is true. And even small companies want their site to provide one
consistent interface. What you have is a bunch of different
applications thrown together with no consistency between them. No
business which knows anything about the internet would want such on
their site. And only a code hacker would build such a site.

And you still run that same risk because some other application may have
chosen the same name. If you must separate your information, you should
use some prefix for your session array keys.
