Because what's below testing/ was copied over from unstable/, and what's below unstable/ is being copied from the results of the debian-installer upload, which fetches its components from testing (that's our release cycle works: we hammer testing into shape until it gets released as a new stable). So a new kernel in unstable isn't sufficient to have all the pieces together, that's why we have daily builds, and that's why you keep being pointed at them. KiBi.
