It comes from role CONNECT, and the reason is compatibility with Oracle 5, when CONNECT was a privilege and not a role (roles and privileges were introduced with Oracle 6).
Actually, it comes from the combination of CONNECT (which grants CREATE TABLE) with the unlimited quota (which gives the "physical possibility" of using the system privilege).
Grant CREATE SESSION instead of CONNECT. No need for quotas. Oh, and RESOURCE is even worse ....
