Because we finished the work on joints instead. And we added support for programmatically changing the gravity.

Solving physics scaling is next on our list though. But it is dependent on another engine change where we need to make it cheaper to know when a transform hierarchy has changed. We really don’t want to poll for scale changes every frame but rather have a system where we have some kind of dirty flag or similar.
