Frankly because nothing outside of the .Net Core's Web/Asp.net/MVC/WebAPI improvements actually matters. And the changes there are massive and significant.
While you can technically create Forms, WPF, and UWP applications using .Net Core on Windows, that isn't really the direction or focus of the framework. Just a niche for legacy software or people who continue to need Windows specific desktop applications.
Console applications might have a future for cross-platform headless sever loads. But outside of that it is a web framework that happens to support non-web projects on the side.
It is competing primarily with e.g. Java, Ruby on Rails, Node.js, PHP, etc.
