Probably because other companies had asked Boeing to make the MAX similar enough to the NG to require no additional training. With possible contract language attached (my assumption). So if enough people say they need extra training, maybe the FAA will catch on and tell everyone to get it. And Boeing would have to do an about face on the issue and maybe cough up some cash or simulator time to those that they made promises to.
