Because for BA to inform the OP, every time something happens to an agent held booking, BA will have to inform the traveller, as they have no way of knowing what is important and what is not important to the traveller.

While annoying and upsetting for the OP, it's not upto BA to secondguess whether the person flying is aware or unaware of what their agent is doing. That's between the agent and the person flying... and BA has to assume that they know what is going on. BA are an airline, not a nanny!
... which in essence, although not in so many words, is exactly what I said in response to the OP in the second post in this thread ...
