Why didn't 4 wheel steer catch on for trucks?

I watched a commercial today for the Silverado EV, and it looks like GM is bringing back 4 wheel steering on that platform.
As the driver of a pickup with a 157" wheelbase, I'm wondering why that didn't become more common after the first time - Sierras and Silverados offered it in the early 2000's? Too expensive? Spectacular failures at speed? I can't use the inside drive thru lane at my bank, or some fast food drive thrus without scuffing the curbs. On the other hand, I parallel parked that monster perfectly the other day, I'm sure dumb luck had a lot to do with it, along with the car in front being well forward in their space.
