Along those same lines, Apple is really into universal design which mot only means everyone can use their device but, generally, they make just one version for everyone. As Tim notes different DSL, Fiber and Cable standards abound both within the states and worldwide so making one Airport to rule them all would be nearly impossible. Better to let the local bit twiddlers make an ADSL box that works well and then use the Airport for what it does well.

Hi,

The combo-pack may happen but I'd guess that you're not going to see a combo 
modem/airport device any time in the near future.  ISP's often have proprietary 
devices that they have entered into agreements with specific venders but, they 
often end up behind the times technology-wise.  That is, all the new Airport 
Extreme and Time Capsule devices are Wireless AC devices whereas I'd venture to 
say that those packaged with ISP's are behind a level or two.  This likely 
won't make much difference to your Internet speed but makes a huge difference 
to your internal network speed.

Later...

Yeah, I know.  But you can often put your cable modem in pass-through mode, or 
buy a Draytek 120 for DSL passthrough.  In the UK, VDSL service is actually 
supplied in two boxes as standard: the modem, and the router; the modem is part 
of the national infrastructure, whereas the router comes from the ISP and can 
be AirPort.

Cheers,
