Because it sucks. BBCode was acceptable eight years ago because we just had nothing better. Frankly it's every bit as stupid and unintuitive to type as HTML, only with a fraction of the functionality. Markdown exists and has a huge installed userbase, most of the users not even realising it. The content of tye's ordered list above is a shining example. Wikicreole exists and has the clout of a sorta-standards process and comes with rationale and code and tests.
