Whoops, sorry, I had missed that, my fault for not checking.

Well since dates and times without timezones make more sense than 
datetimes perhaps they don't feel it adds value. Or perhaps they only 
added xsd:datetimestamp because of OWL 2 and OWL 2 doesn't support date 
or time and so wouldn't care what XSD did about those :-)
