Because the UI for managing client certificates is terrible, with no real support for distributing a cert to multiple endpoints unless you're in an enterprise environment with device management, or issuing smart cards and readers. I do think there's legs in client certs for enterprise authentication, but for consumer products it's a non-starter.

I wonder if this is something that cloud password managers like 1Password could tackle.
