A reason I can see for this is that XSL-FO is often the result of a styling performed by XSLT which is much more a transformation than a styling language IMO. This means that to change a font or a color you have to change the XSLT stylesheet (except if you use techniques such as "style free stylesheets" which I have already used with success with XSL-FO but I'd guess that very few people do this) and this task belongs to programmers more than to designers...
