@christian@larma We (The XSF / People who write and implement XEPs) have a tendency to wait with advancing a XEP to stable until we have sufficient implementation experience.
Your question (which matters more for end users) should be: Why hasn't this been implemented?
Implementing reactions is not as straight as it might seem. Both #Conversations_im and #Gajim wanted to rewrite the database layer to accommodate this feature. On the Conversations side we also wanted to rework the UI before this.
