Because nobody made time to review it.

I'm no expert on this part of the code, Andy can probably answer this
much better than i can.

I think Motion has no knowledge of the tool table.  I think it only uses
tool offset information for a single tool: the currently active one, as
determined by the interpreter.  I think it gets this TLO information
from Task in an emcmot message that's bounded in size and not involved
in Andy's tool handling patch.  I think the current tool table size
limitation comes from a limit on the memory shared between IO and Task,
where to tool table lives.

I'd love to be educated if this understanding is wrong.
