They can't because Mojang won't allow it and it was under the terms of the contract
I have taken William Orvis' source code and made it into an .app. Download it here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/hetzor1h5tqabvm/AAC-7zJIWnO-q4UeUeRS9Qiga?dl=0
GIVING ALL CREDITS TO WILLIAM ORVIS FOR THE CODE. I ONLY MADE THE .app.
Also made a forum post on it.

The .txt file I attached.
The new Macintosh bootstrap hasn't been pushed out, and the reason it will only run on Java 6 isn't just because the app was packaged in Apple's outdated packager. I found an issue when the Bootstrap.jar is executed using a Java stub, the $JAVA_HOME variables and any other class paths within the stub default to a Java 1.6 virtual machine, meaning the stub and Bootstrap.jar class paths may have to be rewritten or a script overriding the glitch injected into the path of the stub. Steve, I like your post about it on that website. Any developers that see this, try to rewrite the path the Launcher takes, making it skip Java VM verification until a script can be injected that will overwrite this.
