Because that provides other security issues. I'm not sure if you're from the states, but due to idiots posting everything about themselves on places like mybook and facespace people have been scraping that information and using it to steal accounts. It happened to Sarah Palin and her Yahoo account. It could happen to anyone. Using a meaningless number to log into an account is far more secure than using publicly available information (for some people, anyway).
