Token Haste Omission

Why is it that on the red 1/1 Soldier tokens from Theros and the red-white 1/1 Soldier tokens from Gatecrash don't have haste written on them, despite the cards that produce them (Akroan Crusader and Sunhome Guildmage + Assemble the Legion, respectively) stating that they should have haste? The keyword 'flying' is printed on Bird tokens, but 'haste' is not printed on those Soldiers.

Because it seldom matters beyond the first turn and the art for tokens with text boxes is different than the one without. By not listing it we allow development more flexibility to add or drop it from tokens late into development.
