What's really annoying is that after The Game was released on 5.1 DVD-A a few years ago, Brian specifically said on his Soapbox that they had started work on a 5.1 mix of ADATR. Another of his pet projects that he couldn't then find time for after starting, and doesn't trust anyone else to do!

Lets be honest here. There's a lot of work goes into creating these box sets if they have to create new content, such as the raw sessions disk. and if they don't cover the costs they wont make them.
Any regular reader of the comments section of the magnificent SDE website http://www.superdeluxeedition.com/ can see that it is exceedingly rare for a box set from any artist to come out that doesn't piss off the core fans of a band.
Collections of previously released material with no new content is much cheaper to put together and easy to make a profit.
Getting new content together for an existing album takes time, and time is money. I imagine they figure out how many hours they can afford to spend on it and stop when they get to that point.

I bought a 10cc box set called Tenology that I absolutely love but 10cc fans hated it.
Similarly for Pure McCartney, Had everything I wanted on it, but avid fans thought 'whats the point'?.
I was on the other side of the fence for Queen Forever, which seemed such a waste of 3 new tracks.
I love my Def Leppard Hysteria 7cd/DVD set, but the core fans are all over it because it's missing some remixes and b sides tracks and doesn't have a 5.1 mix. (Sound familiar?), and contains no previously unreleased material.

I rather have a proper Anthology...but we know that's not happening in our lifetime. A longer verson of BO Rhap could be the selling point.
