GCC source tree bloat is a technical reason.  And a valid one AFAIC.
I wish Jim luck with bringing GPC to a state where it *could* be
included.  But if almost nobody is interested in having it in the
FSF tree, then it should not be included.

Martin's point that there is not a single application anyone cares
of that you need GPC for is also a valid reason, btw.
