Why?

Because aptitude is the successor to apt-get, endorsed by the community that does all the packaging for this OS, is more stable, and has better dependency handling (indeed, promotes better dependency setting). It makes no sense to keep a less feature-rich and complete tool that has long been replaced. Space on the CD was the original reason (along with some canonical employee saying it was 'too complex' for some reason)
