Historically, it was a matter of resources. Making binary releases incurs costs and delays on the release process and release managers, including the folks who actually have to produce the binaries. As a version winds down, we wanted to impose less work on those folks and less friction and delay in cutting a release. There is still value in spinning a tarball though, for downstream consumers who need a tagged and blessed release.
