Why does federated software like Lemmy not use SSO from common providers?

I believe this is against the whole idea of the federation. Users are local to an instance on the federation.
I don't understand why it's against federation. It's no different than an instance offering sign-ins which are federated across all instances. In fact, it's worse, anyone could create an instance and create malicious users.
