Because there's not a single good app for XMPP and nobody uses it.
Their bleeding edge app is Conversations which costs money (already unviable), and the app looks like it's designed in 2012.
It does NOT cost money on F-Droid. You don't even need to install the market itself, you can get the app from F-Droid's website (though then you'd have to check for updates yourself). For me, it was a chance to get mom to F-droid.
