Mainly because there is no certain depiction or documentation of it from where to base the information on.

So far, we have yet to discover one of Sonic's spinning maneuvers which is classified as the spin attack - any such maneuvers goes unnamed and there is no telling whether it is the spin attack or the Spin Dash. We cannot tell which is which and rather than assuming one over the other and get it wrong, it goes unmentioned as an article. That said, it is said enough to say it is Sonic's maneuver, but that is about it.
