Because it hasn't been implemented

The basic would probably not put fpc and make on different pages though 
(which the setup does).

The easiest way to implement it (without duplicating everything) is to 
filter out certain options (visible := false), and, or hide some pages 
completly.

I am not sure, if re-grouping options into new pages, will be a good idea.
- hard to implement, unless by copy and paste
- not helping users, if they go from one to the other, and nothing is 
where it was.

Note: the basic/advanced must then also be supported by packages (e.g. Jedi)
