Does anyone know why this exclusion exists?

    Excluded from this list are companies that were
    majority-controlled by an institutional investment 
    firm at one point. 
I presume this is why Supercell ($3B valuation) is not included, because they were at one point 51% owned by Softbank. But I can't understand why that matters.
