Because you can't tell the user's relation to the domain.  Would you
want Google to be the authoritative source of keys for every gmail
user?  Apollo Global Management for every Yahoo and AOL user?

Personally, as a passive-aggressive mail system operator, the only keys
my MX would publish would be proxy ones that let my MTA decode the
mail and do spam and malware filtering.  If my users don't like that,
they can manage their own fripping keys.
