You can make excuses for SE not implementing that technology all you want, nothing you've said has provided any relevant counter arguments for why they shouldn't.
The authentication method may be one you prefer, but it is not the be-all-and-end-all you assume.

The major problem with OAuth as used by Blizzard is that it requires you to have a cell phone or tablet in order to use it. If you don't have one (and it appears to be required for the 'instant' authentication you appear to be pushing), it becomes much more cumbersome to use than a physical authenticator.
