Well that's because labeled breaks should (in "our" opinion) be implemented paralel to goto. It is simply not the same. Of course you could break out of loops with a goto statement, but I'd much prefer true labeled breaks, where the label is set for the loop-construct itself, not after the construct.
So labeled breaks have only 1 use case: > * escaping deeply nested loops or if statements 'goto' should solve the others.
