There is really no reason not too though.
Displayport also takes up less space that would be used for cooling or whatever.
The only reason other than compatibility is probably that the screws are nice to have if you hook it up to something permanently like a KVM. Displayport have latches but imo they suck and I usually buy cables without them.
Everything in the world is hdmi or DisplayPort. VGA is essentially now a specialty connector used only in data centers.
HDMI has their fees, but DisplayPort doesn’t. Plus at this point implementing analog to digital converters is probably more expensive than just putting DP on it.

But just use DisplayPort instead.

IDK man, it would be great if my crash cart or KVM only needed one cable. I can’t wait for USB-C on servers to be everywhere

VGA is flaky and prone to issues. It doesn’t have a way of reliability relaying information such as display metadata.
And no DRM bullshit like HDCP getting in the way.
