but IMO the best all around cartridge ever!

As an opinion its an opinion and it is for the individual to judge. For me there are simply too many cartridges that are so drastically similar and will do what 99% of their users ever intend to do that there is no functional difference.
Start somewhere above the .243 and end somewhere below the .338 magnums. The various cartridges that fall in there are, for the most part, so close to each other to be indistinguishable except for some niche use.
To the OP's question of "Why not the 30-06" all one can do is shrug. But you can sub in any number of cartridges there and get the same response.
