Hello James, Because we would have to calculate it and it would be very expensive in term of resources. Plus, the results may not be exactly what editors expect. With the lists of "allowed qualifiers", it's the perfect occasion to clean them up, and the community can have total control on what appears in the suggester :)
I hope that answers your question.
