Why this is so is unclear. Snowflakes do follow a hexagonal crystalline pattern, so this takes that and applies it to ice in general. Perhaps it is simply for the visual cue, something to let the viewer know "This is definitely a SlippySlideyIceWorld", or something as simple as TheCoconutEffect, where it has become so ubiquitous, it's now expected.
It could also be because, etymologically speaking, the english word "crystal" evolved from the Old English word ''cristal'' which meant "clear ice", which in turn evolved from the Greek word ''kryos'' meaning "frost", which itself evolved from the proto-Indo-European prefix ''kreus-'', meaning "to begin to freeze". Whatever the case, there is a clear connection between crystals and ice as portrayed in fiction.

The "ice crystal" concept may also come from the fact that large bodies of water tend to freeze in multiple sections, and applies it to where these separate ice in general.

In real life, ice is frozen water, meaning that it can take on a variety of shapes because of water's fluidity. You can have tall pillars, vast sheets, or even irregularly shaped ice formations. Melting and refreezing can also have a wide variety of effects on ice's shape, as well as its colour too; a good quantity of the ice in glaciers and icebergs tends to turn a very nice [[WaterIsBlue light blue colour]], as air pockets inside naturally get forced out of the ice over time. Ice can also have a wide variety of colours depending on what's inside the water that makes it up - [[https://earthlymission.com/striped-icebergs-antarctica-photos Take these icebergs,]] which bear striking stripes of rock and other debris gathered up before they were calved, with some even looking like big boiled sweets!

These {{Phantom Zone}}s are made by mapping environmental data from the Digital World onto locations in the human world, which means there's a region of the Digital World that's a wintry CrystalLandscape.
