It was long assumed that it was originally a coding bug in Gen 2 that was maintained for consistency.

But according to Bulbapedia, Nidorina and Nidoqueen not being able to breed was established in an official Pocket Monsters Encyclopedia released shortly after Red/Green in 1996, way before the final release of Gold/Silver and the introduction of breeding mechanics three years later.

It's still weird that this forces Nidoking to get it on with NidoranF, which--animal-like or not--has some implications behind it.
