Because these things are all much, much harder than just passing the decryption to the graphics card which does not permit a userland OS to see what's going on, avoiding the OS entirely. And that already happens. And has happened for years.
A TPM is useless for DRM on a general purpose computing platform because it is significantly inferior to existing widely deployed solutions.
