Well the main reason is hardly anyone notices and reports such things that lacks in the game and unless its like bombarded with lot of posts BA wont see the need to prioritise as they already have loads of things to prioritise with the kind of release they do(which wont change in the future). I wanted this in the game for sure but when not many bother to see the lack of fine edges down leg, pull shot gloved to WK or top edge caught by WK or slips with ball going high in the air, it doesnt make it into the game as its always a case of what might break if we get one thing right in BA games. Its like a mystery box of bugs that pops up with so many layers to the game.One swallow does not make a summer. I think in most cases top edges are flying over the keeper for six (or one bounce four). Your one case may be an odd scenario. It seems the entire thing is hardcoded. Hope BAnt looks into this once. It's an essential part of the game for having varied modes of dismissal.
Honestly I am yet to see two things in this game,
First, a top edge from a batsman going high up for a catch
Second, an AI fielder dropping a catch on the boundary.
Even the instance where @Rahul_Rants mentioned about top edge going high, it probably might happen like ball hitting the bat then the body and lobbying up in the air. Top edge just from the bat going high in the air just isnt there. The output you get is pretty much limited to top edge for boundary, under edge to WK on bounce, chop on the the stumps while pulling.
