Because by definition, a Cat II or Cat II approach is a precision approach. You won't see the maltese cross on any precision approach. It designates the Final Approach FIX for a non precision approach.

When you see the maltese cross on a regular ILS chart (Not Cat II/III) it isn't part of the "ILS" approach. It's part of the "LOC" approach, or ILS approach/glideslope out of service (IE non-precision).
