I got the impression that the "drab packaging" options were only intended for distribution to internet resellers, not for all-purpose use. Which I suspect is one of the reasons why this is slow to catch on. I've heard that one of the reasons why marketing & demo packaging ships in every box for goods like expensive electronics is that vendors don't know for sure which cardboard box the B&M retailer will open for display (as opposed to the dozens out the back), so they just make sure they're all the same. I bet a similar disincentive applies here, not to mention the extra inventory-tracking complexity if you suddenly have twice as many product variants.
