Not no reason; it adds work and risks incompatibility. Now, that work might be relatively small, and most software these days is compatible with aarch64, but compared to amd64 (which is the de-facto standard, already supported by everything, the default without needing to set anything up) it's still something, and businesses are risk-averse.
