Misses his 6 strings
Let's pretend I am a manufacturer of pickups, switches, and pots. Even if it is 10 cents per device to add a wiring harness, at the scale of millions of devices, it is still hundreds of thousands of dollars. If 1 out of every maybe 1000 guitar players uses aftermarket pickups, is it worth that cash? That means I'm paying something like $100 each for the 0.1% of buyers that want the feature. I might as well give them a free pickup.
Isn't it easier to assume a guitar tech can spend 20 cents and 5 extra minutes to install a harness if the customer wants one? Or that the customer can do it themselves?
Now my real question, do manufacturers even do this if you ask them to custom order with a harness preinstalled instead of leads?
