This was a deliberate decision. The idea was to restrict it enough to make this a one-dimensional "label", but not more. This way apps processing this setting have enough information at hand to compare and order this values, even if there's no vocabulary enforced what the user puts there. See the man page of "hostnamectl" for details about the syntax.
