Maybe because they felt that delivering software that enables its users to actually /use/ real-world websites is more important than have correct stats about some 1% share.

Note that this was a SM Council decision:

You can still switch it off. But instead of requiring SM users to find a way to make websites work (by faking the UA string themselves, with the risk of forgetting about it or breaking stuff like AMO), they now have something that works out-of-the-box. The past has shown that waiting for websites to fix their sniffing (evangelism) is leading nowhere. Just like telling websites to fix their HTML. YMMV.

Greetings,
