Because no has put in the effort to build it and get it adopted. You could also ask why we didn't have something like LSP earlier. In order for such a project to become widely adopted it would need to work well for at least a few popular languages, and work at least approximately as well as the native package management solutions for those languages. And it would need to be easy to use. You can kind of use some existing tools, such as maven, bazel, even npm, for other languages, but it usually isn't as nice of an experience.
