I'd expect it's purely down to the fact that there's no strong reason to do so, in that you can't do anything with the space you'd free up, whereas if you do add code to do it, it needs writing in the first place, testing to make sure if doesn't do anything incorrect (and regression testing to make sure nothing changes when other changes are made elsewhere) plus it adds to the size of the 'operating system' in memory. Basically, there's a 'cost' to software that may not be obvious!
