It's like they don't realize cameras and the internet exist.

Here is my theory:

This segment on Ellen was designed to separate Michelle from the image of a first lady. They are redefining her for a run in 2020, she can't be a simple first lady relegated to exchanging pleasantries with the likes of Melania, she is far superior to that.

That is why they use this situation to make her look so far beyond this silly traditional exchange.
