Business application relationship with CIs

Is it ok to add CI relationship with business application(cmdb_ci_business_app) directly with Infrastructure CIs, such as Windows servers and Linux servers?
When seeing the screenshot below, it looks "Business Application" has direct relationships with only "Information Object" and "Business Application" and "Application Service".  

 

I have tried with my personal instance adding CI relationship with business application and CIs, such as windows servers and Linux servers, and it worked as the third screenshot. I am curious about why "Business Application" "Depends on" "Infrastructure CIs" are not in the prescribed relationships below?
