Why we use different oxidizing agents for different branches of chemistry?

I guess the title is kind of weird but my question is, in organic chemistry if we have to oxidize carbonyl compounds we use Potassium permanganate or Potassium dichromate and mild oxidising agents are PCC (mostly Chromium) but why cannot we use Platinum hexafluoride? Or the ones we use in inorganic chemistry?

Why is chromic acid an oxidizing agent and not a reducing agent?

I read that chromic acid (CrO3) is an oxidizing agent. Since a Bronsted-Lowry acid donates a proton, I assumed that all acids are reducing agents.
How can an acid be an oxidizing agent?

question about oxidizing agent?

I am planning to make some black powder but I am currently without access to potassium nitrate as an oxidizer. But apparently fluorine and chlorine are also strong oxidizers and I have in my possession of a reasonable amount of potassium chloride. So i would like to know if it would work to use potassium chloride as an oxidizer?

what makes an environment 'oxidizing' and 'reducing'? Is it just pH? is it reducing agents like NADH/NADPH?

Oxidizing vs reducing agent. I’m confused between those two terms. The element’s oxidation number being increased/oxidized here is β€œS-β€œ, therefore should this be called a β€œreducing agent”?

is this card wrong? NADH must be a reducing agent since it gives off an H+, thus getting oxidized. NAD+ would be an oxidizing agent since it accepts H+ and gets reduced.

One way to keep agents straight is to think of them as spies who are secret agents for the other side. Try to explain what is meant by this statement. (This is in the context of Electrochemistry between oxidizing and reducing agents.)
