Because You don't really need it.
As marcvtec had pointed out, the big mac has start of the art electronic tech managing traction thus its literally 1000x times better then an open diff in our cars with our 15 year old tech ediff.

At the end of the day from my perspective you both have valid points, technically an LSD is not required if there's a adequate DSC system, which unfortunately is not the case in our E9X vehicles.
