Because the kind of break the caps are meant to encourage is the kind that discourages you from playing continuously on one sitting for a long period of time without break. You have the dailies that act as a soft cap and the weeklies that act as a hard cap.

It is not the kind of break where you decide this week or this month or this year or even this expansion you're not playing the game. You can still decide to do that, but that's up to you. If you run out of things you want to do, you can take a break from the game, but that's not the kind of break the dailies and weeklies are meant to address.
