That all depends on the font being used. Note thatmathbfproduces upright bold letters. If that is what you are looking for with greek, then you should mention this in your question. I generally usebmbecause it is bold italic, and using this as a vector, then it make sense that the items ofbm{x}arex_iwith an italicx.

I'm guessing tradition. Remember LaTeX comes from a time with large limits and resources and especially fonts, probably something to do with which font and which slots it looks in. There are many of the math font macros that only supports a limited number of inputs,mathbfis no different.

I absolutely agree with @dailef. However, you could also try this code with packages amsmath, amssymb, amsbsy. This code contains another two alternatives.
documentclass[a4paper,12pt]{article}
usepackage{amsmath,amssymb,amsbsy}
begin{document}
[boldsymbol{alpha}, boldsymbol{beta}, mbox{boldmath$alpha$}, mbox{boldmath$beta$} ]
