Editing parameters can add problems elsewhere. I'm sure they felt that the benefit of increasing these parameters did not outweigh the necessary testing that would have to accompany it.

Can we please stop talking about hardcodes and how its so easy to change them, or how we should change them, or how we cannot change them, or how CA should have changed them. Its boring, dull and repetitive. Please move on to something more interesting. I mean, we literally dropped a huge bomb on you with the tutorial campaign announcement. What the hell is a "city-state faction" and what the hell are "trade and military colonies"!?
