I think it's because most people are using laptops rather than desktops.  
Laptops have their built-in UPS. A spike will probably just fry the wall  
wart and not damage the laptop, and they'll just replace the wall wart.

Still, you'd think there'll be more than a dozen people noticing that nut in  
Fedora hasn't worked for over two months.
