Because attempting to clear the fights in the first week is fun for people who enjoy challenging themselves. The final fight is highly tuned for the limits of the gear you can have available during the first week, thus promoting higher level play before weeks of gearing bring the difficulty down significantly.

Delaying savage by one week affects no one and only raises the dilemma of when to release the weekly-capped tomestone.
