With or without C'est que

Why people says Qu'est-ce que c'est que + [something] if Qu'est-ce que + [something] means the same?

This question relates to:French lesson "Qu'est-ce que c'est... and Qu'est-ce que c'est que ça/cela ? = What is... / What's that? in French"

It is just the way it is, with no reason behind it. That is the way the language evolved.

Bonne Continuation !
