Because it's unnecessary, and precludes it from running on fun platforms otherwise fully capable of it - like the Zipit Z2 I am currently hacking on (which come to think of it is probably even fast enough to run the original inside Dosbox).

Granted, I think the ZZ2's CPU is like 1/4 the speed. On the other hand, the BBB doesn't seem well-suited to anything graphical.
