The answer is because it is a bit cumbersome to arrange, and
people who felt the need were too lazy to add that. And
everybody knows that I am not from the "partial commit" camp.
You could do something like this...
NOTE NOTE NOTE.
I am not quite happy with this one, as it exposes one of my
favorite pet peeves -- wildcard pathspecs behave differently
between diff-tree family and ls-files family. After modifying a
random C source file, you can say:
git commit -m 'C files changed' -- '*.c'
but you cannot say:
git commit -m 'C files modified and/or removed' -- '*.c'
after removing a C source file, because diff-tree's pathspec
only works as top-down, subdirectory limiter.

git-commit: Allow removal to be partially committed as well
We allow partial commit of modified and added files but never
handled removed files. This hacks it around.
