the reason would be a) that it simplifies things and prevents us (which,
let's face it, means mainly Rintze and to some degree me)
from having to adjust ~700 styles and b) that I'd argue that it's the
natural assumption made by people coding styles that aren't testing this
particular feature so it makes CSL more intuitive.
And of course it would still be perfectly feasible to sort by author types
in a sort macro if that's indeed needed (and if we thing about localized
styles, going by the labels seems a poor way of doing this - in English
editors come before translators, in Finnish after them? That can't be
right).
