    I think it's the same reason why fishing retainers can't get some of the more rare fish, like ones you have to mooch+ off of. If the retainers could grab things that are usually in high demand, it'd devalue everything. Plus you tend to get more clusters from the following - https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/w...rial_Reduction

    They can get new items that are in high demand though, like the new Ala Mhigan Salt which is a timed Stormblood node and the new battle mats needed for weaver and leatherworker which have insanely high demand, much higher than clusters. They can also get shards and crystals - it kinda doesn't make any sense for the clusters not to be included.
