Because the "Finale edition" of GPO is a teaser of sorts.
Since GPO and most of the other Garritan products are so inexpensive, it would be counter-productive for the makers of GPO to include the "full" version of their product with sales of Finale, as a free add-on. Finale and GPO are made by two entirely different companies.
So they include a "teaser" version: the GPO for Finale library, which is a "light" version. Quite functional, but not as complete as the full product.
By the way, as a registered user of Finale, you get a discount on any future purchases of Garritan products if you do so via the MakeMusic website.
