I recall getting feedback from one or two companies at which I attended day-long interviews. I had to ask, and after the "well, we can't tell you that," got a couple of "we hired someone with more specific experience with XYZ".

Otherwise, many days sent down a black hole, followed by beers, to recover from the day's ordeal.

My wild-ass hyperbolic guess is that once they make a choice, staying silent is their way of grabbing a beer or two and forgetting their own ordeal, and having no regrets. "We hired a genius. All the others were run of the mill"

They're human, after all, but maybe humans won't be involved any more. Machines decide who will serve them.

Sometimes they just aren’t sure, or they have a couple other candidates in the pipe that seem good. I’ve been on the other side where we didn’t hire the person for random reasons that I try to not take it personally. But it is frustrating for candidates for sure.
