Why do we defrost something from the freezer instead of defreezing it?

It seems weird that the opposite verbs are not sharing the same root. Why not defreeze something you froze or frost something you will soon defrost?

Those other terms are probably proper, they just aren't used because it's easier to say.

Defrosting is a process when dielectric stress is augmented through a high frequency bias applied to a panel so its outside skin temperature is raised above the rhimepoint.
