Because again...I don't see how a man like Hyman Roth would concern himself with such things. Frankie was 'small potatoes', who cares what his dying thoughts would be. And the hitman wouldn't know to say it unless specifically instructed to do so. Ultimately, it is inescapeable that line makes no sense.
And the reason FCC didn't 'reshoot' is that at the time, it probably seemed like a good idea. And on the surface, it WAS a good idea except for the unanticipated nitpicking & questions that would follow some 20-30 years afterward by GF geeks everywhere!
