I think it is because it often looks awkward. For example assuming like most people you have a nose, your nose is always in your view, but of course it'd be awkward to replicate that in first person. Your arms on the other hand are often shown in a relatively weird position compared to your body in some games, as it would be weird for you to be holding them as high as you do depending on the game

Because you'll look down, say "cool, I can see my feet," and then never look down again.

That said, fpses with platforming elements should 100% have feet to help orient your jumps.

In MW2, if you look down and toggle between standing and crouching, you can barely get a glimpse of your knee(s) and feet as the character changes positions.

That's just MW2 of course, can't speak for the others.

You can see them in Dead Island and GTA V and it looks awkward in both. It has kind of an uncanny valley effect.

I remember there being one crappy game where you played as a woman with great big tits that you saw when you looked down.

I never understood why like in Silent Hill when you could just step over or under a railing or climb a fence you had to travel though a entire creepy building or something.
