Because in the hypothetical he doesn't ever encounter Catboi Sage Deluxe, thus he can steal no spirit vessel with the full memory knowledge of the Calling spell, as he did in 5.3. As was required for him to empower himself to the level he needed in order to combat us as he did in the Seat of Sacrifice. Note that he also doesn't see us by any means fighting Emet-selch in said hypothetical, and therefore has no measuring stick with which to know the true power that he requires to potentially best the WoL.

Don't be daft, it doesn't suit you.
