It's not a matter of 'just allowing' something, it's a matter of spending a lot of time developing a new feature. A feature that I believe adds nothing to the experience - in fact I think it would be negative and reflect badly on the game.
I've spent my entire career making games - interactive entertainment - and I'm not about to make something which requires one player to sit and do nothing for minutes at a time whilst hogging the majority of CPU cycles.
And I'm not going to waste time writing a chat program when MS messenger already exists.
