You can hardly blame, if that is the right word, NATS CATC for HK controllers being reluctant to use courtesies. Not only would it distract from the task being learned (including correct communications techniques) if courtesies were either encouraged or permitted during training, it would actually be plain daft to wish good-day to the same input staff a dozen times in an exercise!
