Why the difference de-icing prop vs jet aircraft

For all you Big Jet Drivers out there, at the moment a very topical subject is tail plane de-icing. Here is a question :

Why is there such a big difference in design philosophy of a prop vs. jet aircraft regarding tail plane de-icing/anti-icing ?

Most jets have no protection at all, on the tail plane.
