The reason is that GNU has a policy against this. You may disagree with it but it shouldn't be a mystery. I agree that better tooling here would be desirable.

It's a colossal job with a modest payoff. It's also difficult politically as you must get all the relevant groups on-board before starting. I personally have other windmills at which to tilt. Tom
