Why was the 911 made without power steering?

Why was the 911 made without power steering? Obviously, the technology existed since the 1950s. Do most performance cars lack power steering?
Was it an engineering issue to have a pulley based pump at the front of the car? Do most rear and mid-engined cars lack power steering for this reason?

Can someone explain the benefits of not having power steering?

The 993 got power steering in 1994, so why was it suddenly a good idea to have power steering?
