Because lots of Fedora developers multi-boot and/or use virtualization on their 
laptops, and lay users can't tell the difference.

That said, I'm all in favor of having installation profiles for laptops, 
desktops, workstations, servers, etc. with their own sets of defaults.  I'm just 
not enough in favor of it to learn the anaconda innards and do it, which is 
probably the same reason nobody else has done it either.
