Probably because those are completely different skill sets from raising capital, finding product market fit, and launching a new product as a startup without megacorp capital and marketing behind you.
An MVP of a new product can be launched in 1-2 weeks by a single developer. If it has a mobile app, I've seen it get 10,000+ users in 2 weeks.
And 99% of them die and whither in obscurity.
