For the precise reason that's stated in the manual. As far as Cake is concerned, when saving, the distantly-associated models mean nothing. AFAIK, this was done in order to cut down on complexity of Model's logic (not to mention memory requirements). If you find yourself needing to save this deeply-associated information, you might need to either re-think your DB schema, or your process for saving the record(s). Perhaps, if you post a concrete example, someone might have a better idea. Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://cakeqs.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.
