Purely my hypothesis: it’s too high a risk that someone accidentally leaves a password or private info in their clipboard. People don’t expect a clipboard to persist, so you’d need to re-educate everyone to avoid this “bug”, just like browser history and incognito mode.
Apple is notorious for assimilating popular third party extensions. Screencapture, night shift, colour picker , why no stack based clipboard? It’s too useful to have been overlooked. Must have been a conscious decision.
