One can only assume that this is also why Clarke and Heinlein didn't make the list.

Clarke and Heinlein are both just outside the top 10. (Stranger in a Strange Land, at 11, is the first one I haven't read, and I'll be reading it soon. Fairly reluctantly.)
I'd have said that Neuromancer is one of the few books in the list that attempts any kind of style. Obviously it doesn't work for everyone.

To be honest, I can't remember very much about it. I might have to read it again.
