Leaving the merits of the type aside, adding it would make the database
incompatible with every existing SQLite library version already out there.
That is not done lightly.

Additionally for the code to be compatible with SQLite's license, a public
domain library implementation would be needed for the vast majority of
platforms that do not support the type in hardware.  This is a non-trivial
amount of work.

You can of course fork SQLite and add the type yourself.  Or pay anyone to
do that.
