Probably so that you can go Sword+Board with your Xbow+Bolts - Archers don't need another slot for shields, if anything giving them another slot for ammo will just encourage more kiting and less cading/healing
I think you interpreted me backwards. I'd actually say not allow xbow to put things in the 4th slot. They should bring something for the team as well. They can pick up a shield from the background or a melee weapon.

In my view a good shield is a support item.
