Vulthuryol is not there by choice.

He doesn't fly when he fights you. He's been down there so long he can no longer lift himself for more than a minute or two at a time.

Numinex was caged for what, a century maybe? And he went mad. Vulthuryol's lack of clever tactics, his weak thu'um, his weak wings, are the consequence of his imprisonment. Inside that sphere, that tonal construct of the Dwemer, sealed and slumbering. They bound him and caged him and made him theirs. That's what the Dwemer do; their music is magic and their magic is beyond even dragons. They made GODS.
