Probably has to do with the relatively flat discharge curve displayed by NIMH cells as compared with that of nicad cells.

I just got some very cool switches from MPX that have the charge plug in their tops, a switch and 5 battery level indicator LEDs. BIG device but should fit most TD applications. But in reading the info supplied, they make a pretty big deal about them being for Nicads..not 'button cells', dry cells or lead acid. I'm prone to think that 'button cells' (considering the printing of this was prior to our popular use of Nihms) refers to Nihms. Any comments on using the LED systems for Nihms. (notice I said comments, not opinions, don't care what you 'think', want to know what you know :-) I'll do my own tests in any case.
