Why doesn't SD make a stacked Phat Cat P90

SD pretty much makes a noiseless anything these days, so I was wondering why SD doesn't make a stacked Phat Cat P90 .
I would bet it would be a winner since most complaints about the pickup is the hum .
 
Might be my noise gate, but I've never been playing and wished that my Phat Cats had less hum. More clarity at the neck? Sure, but hum has never been an issue for me with these pickups.
 
With all the other SC noiseless options they offer without paying custom shop prices they could easily offer it as well.
With the popularity of P90's right now I'm sure it would sell fast.

Actually P90s don't sell as much as regular singles. Much less noiseless P90s.
 
Most of the issue comes from the enormous additional pickup depth a stack like this engenders. Practically anyone wanting to install the parallel axis stack needs to deepen the stock singlecoil rout. The same would most likely be true of a stacked p90.
Gibson guitars with the p100 ate routed extra deep too.
