Because it is not ambiguous with regards to open or closed semantcs. It just can handle open shapes or closed shapes. In fact, what I propose is a syntax for ShEx so a user can declare an open shape or a closed shape, which in my opinion is the best solution and is similar to what regular expressions offer.
