I suspect that is because of the KISS rule of thumb. They figure if they give pilots the go ahead to start playing with thrust some moron is going to screw it up and wind up making a big hole. Especially if they are applying this on short final, that is why I said to stabilize it early that way if you don't like it you can go around safely. The aerodynamics support it as that flash video I linked clearly shows, or so I thought.
