There is limited space--I believe AA only opened its club when HP vacated its "Phoenix Club" in the mid/late 90s(?). Not only have AA and UA had significantly more traffic overall for a very long time, they also likely have a more balanced ratio of local originating traffic vs DL, which is a consideration in club development.
With the launch of ATL flights and addition of former NW routes, DL could definitely support a club today, although I am sure Amex and a host of other vendors would also compete for a club at SNA if additional club space were made available.
