Because that would be worse. My email address does not permanently reside in my profile either was my point(yes, I am one of those). I am not above temporarily posting it in a form a computer can't automatically process (or at least not without additional logic in any code) once in a while, though that has flaws too, since the person reading has to "get it" when it's not just a link in the form of xxx@yyy.zzz.
