I'm no lens designer, but there may be an issue involving flange depth that prevents them making an EF or PL version.
A lot of lenses are made specifically for certain mirrorless mounts that simply cannot be produced for those (dare I say it?) perhaps soon-to-be-legacy systems. The Fuji MK 18-55/50-135 and assorted Sigma and Rokinon/Samyang glass come to mind, for example.
