A long time ago. I haven't been able to find the reason for that (neither for U+1FBD - U+1FBF) and I wonder if that reason still aplies. One might argue that the difference in use between comma and ypodiastoli (Greek decimal symbol) is much more important, but none of these has been coded separately in the Greek blocks.
