Its bureaucracy at its finest and with the gang of fools steering the ship here, surprises me not at all.
It's not about preventing people from carrying both. It's about making a defined statement that the two shouldn't be mixed from the people legally distributing the product.

I don't understand the outrage that weed wont be available in the liquor store. Are cigarettes? Are bananas? Computer parts? The only thing you can get at the liquor store is liquor and things to mix it with.

As an avid weed user I don't want the weed in the liquor store, no more than I want bike parts from the pizza place. Bbecause the free market tells me there will be a store within (as you said) a couple blocks. Or possibly even within the same shopping centre. And at that store there will be people who know about the product and can talk intelligently with me about it, which is one of the biggest advantages of legalization.
