Mainly, because I have over 30,000 pages and there was no easy way to match page for page with a 301. So, I'm basically leaving my old pages online until my new pages get indexed then I will remove them.

Honestly, this is my first time doing this so I cannot claim I know what I'm doing. All I do know is that its working for me and I haven't lost any traffic keeping the old site on a subdomain.
