Because the coders were incapable of accomplishing a realistic result. Simple. To make mudukons jump independently would of consisted of many, many tests being run at once(I'm guessing) to see if there were platforms above them to grab onto, if there was a platform with a safe landing space, if there was a platform with a place where the mudukon would end up hanging etc. and that could of caused lag. this is, of course, pure speculation. plus mudukons not being able to jump adds to the puzzle aspect
