Because sshd ignoring the target account's configured, possibly restricted, shell and running whatever executable the client asked for would promise to be a backdoor large enough to drive an aircraft carrier through. Sideways. Not to mention that running commands on the server without having the login shell set up the environment - $PATH, $LD_LIBRARY_PATH, etc. etc. - would very likely be an issue no less complicated than figuring out the nested quoting.
