Some reasons for this include: The process wasn't documented, the code was lost, used many different hardwares, it took about 50 years, untangling history is _hard_.

For that last remark, just look at the Java or Rust bootstraps (they needed _many_, _many_ steps) or the sheer impossibility to bootstrap the NPM/Node distaster.
