ha, I would wager that there is a simpler reason: sortable tables in HTML are nearly impossible to implement.
once you have a lot of data, you want fixed column headers. stacked sorting (column A first, then B), a lot of things suddenly become needed additions.
and where do you sort? front end or back end? how much data are processing?
just look at google spreadsheets and you'll see how sub-optimal it is.
