Why can't Sonic swim in Sonic 2?

Sonic can't swim in Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (or most classic games) because developers mistakenly believed real hedgehogs couldn't swim, creating an instant-death weakness in water levels, a trait that stuck despite being factually incorrect about real hedgehogs. This limitation was a design choice to add a unique vulnerability, though other characters like Tails could swim fine, and the idea became a long-standing, if slightly silly, part of Sonic's lore.
