The ones that do will just end up causing more phone calls getting it to work, which means more training and more expense - all for something most people won't ever use.
I get that it's an important feature to you, but nobody else (as far as I know) is pushing those features either, so it's not just virgin.

Most people won't know they'd use it until it's there and other people shout about it. To simply attach a USB drive for storing your media/photos content would be extremely useful to a lot of people.
