Look at Naruto's infobox now and you'll see "ten million" annotations, in every single nature. Most (Manga Only). Why not use this space in a better way, with more valuable information?

You'd be surprised how many insignificant topics turn into dung flinging matches around here. It doesn't matter. At all.

Naruto, Roshi, and the other jinchuriki are all users of their tailed beast skills (however they acquire them) and so it gets listed in their infoboxes. See? Short. Simple. To the point. Pointless annotations are pointless. Jinchuriki are already special cases and so those annotations aren't needed.

Manga only annotations are there because the anime has the ability to royally screw with manga timelines (look at animes like FMA) and, at times, have been noted to depict information wrong. That's the only reason those tags are there.
