They got tired of playing something else.
Who needs something new and exciting when you can play the same setlist that you hear on tv ads and radio stations for decades?

Fair, and this makes more sense than them dropping the songs despite already having done all the hard work in rehearsing them.
Surely it's not a general audience reaction thing - sounds overwhelmingly positive from what I can hear on YT. If someone's going to see Q+AL there's a good chance they're a big enough fan to know second-tier-famous songs like SYW and It's Late.

Personally, I'll be very disappointed if they aren't back in for the Toronto show. It's an expensive road trip and those two songs were my highlights in terms of anticipation.
Also Canada likes Queen, There's an awful lot of long time Queen fans at that show who will know tracks off any of the first 7 albums.
Honestly, for Canada there's probably way more people at the show who know It's late than have a clue about anything after Under Pressure.

I hope with the UK dates like a stand alone mini tour they might include some more "deep cuts". Would like to hear My Melancholy Blues , All Dead All Dead as well as It's Late and Spread Your Wings. Would also like to see them reinstating In The Lap of The Gods revisited which was a personal highlight of the last tour. Can't wait to see Frank. Roll on Sunday December 3rd at the Glasgow Hydro. Always brings back memories of the 70's concerts at the old Apollo.

If you go to the show EXPECTING to be disappointed, you'll most likely get what you expected and, should there BE any surprises, that surprise will be all the greater. Brian's doing exactly what he did on the TCM tour......exactly what he always does in reverting to type because it's easy for him.
