Because destroying chargers with too much current, or lighting cables on fire is a bad PR?
I have a lot of cheap chargers, and they give out all sorts of crazy stuff. One drops the voltage to like 3.5 volts with 1 volt of ripple under load. Another shuts down the port completely if you draw >.6A.
It is really hard to tell how much current can one draw safety.
