Because the people signed the pact did it long time ago, before any details about Threads federation was known. It was a typical fedi kneejerk reaction.

You'd have to be a dumbass to federate with these megacorps lol. We're here precisely because of the decisions of one such company.

Mastodon is pretty fucked up anyway because everyone is on mastodon.social.

The key detail about Threads is that it's owned by Meta. That's the reason to block Threads. It was known back then, so there's nothing silly about it.
