I suppose the reasoning is that it doesn't matter when you have a WebKit-flaw. It doesn't matter if the browser gets an update if the average user is using 3-5 apps every day that use WebKit themselves and are still vulnerable. For example, StackExchange has a built-in browser using WebKit, as do Twitter and Facebook. Updating Apple's Browser (is it called Safari on iOS as well?) separately would fix about 20% of the attack surface, totally not enough for any sensible company.
