It's not an oversight, it's a willful decision from Apple.

"We decided using our devices while charging ruins the magic of it all being wireless, etc. so we made the unilateral decision to stop you from doing that even if you don't give a fuck (like a normal human) about it being wireless all the time, always. This is the way we already decided you need to use Apple products so that it feels 'futuristic' and all other opinions are objectively wrong."

Apple is no better than Microsoft, they both love making decisions for you.
