Because this "feature" of JavaScript leads to confusing code and unintended bugs (see examples at https://codeburst.io/why-i-prefer-to-use-semicolon-in-javascript-f00c303547). Many JS projects end up relying on a linter to require semicolons and avoid these issues. The fact that PHP requires semicolons is one of the things I like about the language.
