Because drag and drop ML is so new.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SPSS_Modeler

I remember using this in NINETEEN NINETY FIVE (it was called clementine then).

Interestingly one of the leads (Rob Milne) sold up (to IBM , forced sale I guess due to a cash squeeze and no investors) and went to Everest, where he got to the bottom of the Hilary step, had a massive heart attack and died.

Makes ya thunk.
