And my other point - Petrucci did use ligatures, although he made the pragmatic decision to limit it to two-note ligatures. This was within the reasonable bounds of the extra pieces of type necessary, whereas three-note ligatures would entail hundreds of new pieces.
Oh, and the coda to this - subsequent printing methods enabled longer ligatures, but by this point they were in any case little-used. Not least because of the widespread influence of Petrucci prints.
