It just show the polite form because in the N5 levels that’s often all people have been taught to use so far.

During reviews it is difficult to know if BunPro is looking for the まだ~ていません or まだ grammar point. I am often getting it wrong by answering まだ~ていない. I think a warning message of [more polite] would work well here.

it lacks this structure maybe ?
