I believe the biggest reason is application support for our devices is extremely small when compared to the number of WM applications available. That and we can now just about tweak every aspect of the WM OS to our heart's content with WM as it is.

That and a boat load of people are more familiar with windows than Linux. hence makes it more comfortable for them to program and play with. Also a point of having to write new drivers or emulators for all the special hardware functions probably isn't the most fun either.

Someone did boot the 6700 with linux, but nothing has been done beyond that. I believe there was some information about it on shadowmite's website.
