Being very cynical, the answer is simply cost. It is cheaper to replace a pilot (probably nearing retirement anyway) who loses hearing due to cockpit noise than it is to install and maintain ANR in the cockpit.
If we wish to protect our hearing, the bean counters will say buy your own ANR headsets.
