Because the installer has no way to know what isn't relevant. While we could
hardcode the services that every package in the tree at the time of the snapshot
offers and display them if that package is selected to be emerged, that's just
kinda dumb. Also, this wouldn't cover the case of people using an up-to-date tree.
