No, not that, the thing that explains why they are not in BG3!


They can't be placed convincingly on the character's back
They'd need to be animated to look good in combat (in addition to having the character's attack animations)
The second point is the important one. They all have independently moving parts. The weapons that are in the game have little or no animation.
