Because some personality traits are disadvantageous to people who have them, and some people have personality traits that they would self-modify away from if they were rational actors, etc.
On a meta level, classification systems that have "not labeling anyone as better than anyone else" as a selling point sometimes sacrifice precision or accuracy to do so.
They would avoid doing that, but they're told that not labeling anyone as better or worse is just as worthwhile as precision and accuracy.
