Because there is no software in existence that allows you to UV a 20 million poly model. Automatic methods will crash and for manual methods the software will just be unusably slow. The only way to texture such a large mesh is to either
1) split it up and uv small parts individually. This would take ages, requiring at least a magnitude more time than the usual approach. This just isn't economical even for your average hero asset.
2) Create a low poly mesh (and not just by decimating, or you'll get bad UVs), but they're marketing Nanite as if you _don't_ have to do this ("straight from zbrush") and if you have to do this, while still very impressive obviously, it won't revolutionize the workflow like people think it will.
