masonry drill warning

Anyone know why a 1/4 masonry drill has a warning "don't use on a drill press"
? This came from a local hardware store.

It's been my experience that a carbide tip breaking off is safer when it
happens in a hand drill, away from your face, than in a drill press at
chest or eye level. YMMV
