Why didn't they add a capless gas cap?

While I lived in Colorado I had to replace several gas caps on various vehicles. I for one do not like Fords better idea and my other vehicles all have gas caps. It ranks right up there with their crappy turn signals! Big Reason I passed on a Range Rover SUV recently.
