Why don't drum corps play jazz anymore?

Drum Corps design shows to score well in the judging paradigm in place when they design the show.  A jazz show, like those performed in the 1970s-80 Blue Devils would not score well on current sheets.

Yet I think the ability to produce a jazz show beyond 30 bars of snippets of a piece of music is possible.

Imagine how the audience would feel if they went back to their cars humming a tune they just heard?  I think they would want to hear more.
