Maybe because the offered alternative sucks so much.

I’d happily split mksh into mksh and mksh-static, make
the latter Essential, and help to get rid of dash and
GNU bash in Essential. Or the other way round. Or just
not split it, the savings on linux-any are not that big,
and for kfreebsd-any I’ve got (longer-term) plans.
