It's because xbows are more luck-based than the other weapons, snowball and talon, and even more reliant on auto attack crits than the others. I don't know though, the rules are subject to change but my stance on this is pretty firm lol.
EDIT: Plus, quick-swapping...I think it's a pretty cheesy move to switch to xbow all of a sudden in the middle of a talon fight and kite, especially since the opponent may not have any xbow besides a chunker, which is not at all allowed. That's why I'd rather give people a choice to agree to use xbow.
EDIT EDIT: quickswapping is a valid strategy though so if both you and your opponent want to take advantage of it, then you are welcome to as long as you agree that xbow use is fine.
