Because that code is quite different, fetching copyrights from Google on pan/zoom. Custom map types often only need a static copyright, or a copyright that is displayed when the view intersects a bounding box of interest. Even if a custom map type needs dynamic copyrights (fetched from a server on pan/zoom) we can't help with the fetching. What we can do is provide a way to display copyrights - we call that a custom control. Custom overlay or just a positioned/styled div works for me.
