I'm guessing because they were quickly losing the 7" market and they needed to push something out the door.
they had to make it ipad2 resolution for software backwards compatibility. iOS doesnt have built in scaling and im sure they didnt want to force devs to develop for one more resolution.
They could have done retina resolution, but either the technology doesnt exist for a 8" retina resolution panel , or it makes the text too small (or its just too expensive to hit apples inflated margin targets)
