Why isn't pkg(5) providing the file assembly through its own architecture?

How would the packaging system know how to assemble files that it has
never seen before, and do so in an intelligent manner without having any
knowledge of the file formats?

One might ask the very same question of using SMF for that task.
How can SMF assemble a file it has never seen before?

Why can we teach SMF to do this but not pkg?
