It's been a long time since I hacked on them, but I expect blame still mostly blames me. amstatus has been in Perl since up-do's and track-suits were in fashion, whereas amreport was rewritten in Perl during my time at Zmanda. If I recall correctly, amstatus was full of mysteriousness, so I delayed working on it in preference to converting other things to Perl. So basically, no good reason except lack of developer attention.
