Because he's "your voice" for all conversations, and it saves having to voice 40 different versions of each dialog. See they worked around this in games that are fully voiced like Mass Effect by giving the Hero a consistent name and only one voice per gender. But then another game by the same company (Dragon Age) doesn't voice the hero character. Then there is Saints Row 3 and Saints Row 4 where there are 6 voices (3 per gender) and a few pronoun gaffs.

Basically the direction of the game is that we will see all the Scions again, but we may only see them altogether again for them to have a heroic sacrifice ala Palom and Porom in FFIV or Louisoix at the end of V1.0 . We've been given that hint with Y'shtola already.
