Because it is not consistently Big Endian or Little Endian.  Would you want time expressed as mm:ss:hh?

No, because I am not accustomed to time being such. However, I am accustomed to MDY, and making any kind of switch would not be necessary, because people are accustomed to it, know it, and can use it proficiently, unlike your time proposal.
