Historical reasons, i.e. no real reason. But actually in this case I dont really see what that would acheive. You're not really being conservative in what you produce. In either case you're producing a field in the OPF that no software other than calibre will understand.

But feel free to submit a patch to metadata.opf2.OPFCreator (you'll also have to path opf2.OPF to first try to read the value from the meta tag)

Oh and you might want to go the whole hog and do the same for the series and rating fields as well.
