Worth remembering about the LRT is it saw most of the scoping and planning nearly 10 years ago, before we really had modern bike plans. It's still an unfortunate oversight, and I think long term there is some wish for some infrastructure, but given that the road has been rebuilt, it'll be a while.
Most of the detail design work was done in 2012/2013, and there were definitely bike plans by then.
Ultimately, it just wasn't a priority.
It's a shame really, especially that stretch of Courtland. There is plenty of room on the east side for a MUT. It wasn't so bad riding through there on Sunday with little traffic, but on a weekday in the morning or afternoon it could be pretty hectic.
