Because this is a RACING hall of fame, not a breeding one. Raise a Native showed a lot of promise at 2, but so did Favorite Trick, and Devil's Bag, and, well, you choose a top 2yo who didn't train on - Arazi? All nice horses but not Hall of Fame material. Only if they race at the same level at 3, at least, should horses be under consideration to be classed among the greats.
