See
this post for a explanation of ctime and mtime.
As for creation time, remember that when Ken Thompson wrote unix in 1969 it was revolutionary to have a file system shared by multiple users. The way unix worked back then encouraged people to create a new file and remove the old one if you were updating a file that was accessed by multiple people. Also it was necessary to periodically copy a filesystem to tape and reload the disk to defragment files. These things made a creation date silly.
By the late 70's, unix had more robust filesystems that no longer needed re-orgs and it had file locking system calls. This made creation date a possibility. And indeed HP added it into the first generation of HP-UX. At that time I was a sysadmin of an HP 9000/520 with creation date and an ATT 3B2 without creation date, so I got to see them side by side. Yes, creation date was useful several times a year, but I never really missed it on the 3B2. And creation date expanded both in-core and on-disk inodes by 4 bytes. So it's not like you get it for free. When HP rewrote HP-UX to use the McKusick filesystem, they dropped creation date. No one really complained very loudly.
There is a lot of competition in unix. Any features added to a kernel must pass a cost/benefit test or they will be dropped. The benchmarks enforce this rather strongly. Creation date had its day in court, but I doubt that any unix version still in existence has a creation date.
Microsoft OS's in contrast have little competition and are not written to win benchmarks. That's why they have a poorly thought out selection of features in their kernels.
