Jim: because there is a bigger risk of data loss from encryption than 
from theft, and as i mentioned, some machines have encryption on without 
having/knowing recovery keys, so if their system does not boot for any 
reason, they have lost their data. ignoring backups which should be done 
anyway, 100% of hardware will eventually fail. even if the drive is ok, 
if the motherboard or cpu (with built in tpm) fails, without recovery 
keys the data is lost. the percentage of hardware that gets stolen is 
less than that. I have customers that don't remember their basic account 
logins, never-mind their drive encryption keys.
I'm not saying drive encryption is bad per se, but it does increase risk 
of loss, and reduce risk of data recovery.
