Very brave author. I have contributed a few patches to WINDRES to fix some bugs and it's a strange tool / concept.
I'm going to guess that Microsoft won't wish to fix any bugs in RC.EXE, since that would break some existing resource scripts, and at this point backwards compatibility is much more important than dealing with quirks.

Edit: Reminds me a bit of my adventures with the Registry, another ill-conceived part of Windows: https://rwmj.wordpress.com/2010/02/18/why-the-windows-regist...
