Glidelock on PM Daytonas

Why has rolex decided to continue to not introduce the Glidelock clasp on the bracelet PM Daytonas? I understand that the length of the clasp is longer, it was initially created to be for the Diver watches to slip on/off a wet suit, etc. But the latest model now includes it on all Oysterflex Daytonas? Am I missing something here?

For those that have the glidelock…you know it is one of the best things to have for pieces you wear year round in different climate.

You can source an aftermarket glidelock and then you don't even need to worry about scratches.

I just handled a micro brand with an oyster glidelock bracelet at work yesterday and it was 99%. Cost less than the sales tax on a Rolex part.

Glidelock is really amazing, that's the main reason why I prefer my 126515 over 116

I was under the impression the new daytona OF PM's did have a glide lock?
