Well, for one thing: PGI requires a hell of a lot more available RAM than
d-i. Using PGI as a default installer would practically rule out the
possibility of installing an m68k-based system.

Not to mention the fact that PGI, being a 'smart' installer, requires more
maintenance than an installer such as d-i. With eleven architectures to
maintain, this is a pain (which is probably the reason why PGI does not
support all architectures).
