Eric Lippert talks about this extensively on his blog
To quote directly from that post:
Just off the top of my head, here are a few {reasons why this hasn't been done}. (1) How do you unambiguously specify that you want a method info of an specific explicit interface implementation? (2) What if overload resolution would have skipped a particular method because it is not accessible? It is legal to get method infos of methods that are not accessible; metadata is always public even if it describes private details. Should we make it impossible to get private metadata, making the feature weak, or should we make it possible, and make infoof use a subtly different overload resolution algorithm than the rest of C#? (3) How do you specify that you want the info of, say, an indexer setter, or a property getter, or an event handler adder?
