If I had to guess:
1) physical space. There isn't a ton of leftover room once you've added compute and IO.
2) segmentation. A sufficiently powerful iGPU would cannibalize sales of AMD's own discrete GPUs.
3) board partners. A sufficiently powerful iGPU would rob AMD's GPU board partners of sales.
4) heat. Keeping the two hot things apart from each other makes both of them easier to cool.
5) memory bandwidth. Even the dinky iGPU in my Ryzen 2200G is heavily constrained by RAM clocks.
FWIW, I have a Ryzen 2200G hooked up to my TV, and it's totally adequate for casual gaming.
