Default Concert setlist question

There are a bunch of songs that this band just refuses to play live. Granted they haven't played a concert (save the Clinton thing) in 5 years, but it's doubtful that things will change drastically from the Dance in future shows.

Are there reasons given by the band for the following songs just never appearing or completely disappearing from a setlist:

Oh Well - C'mon, this was played I think in every FM concert for what, 28 years or something, then suddenly it's just gone?

Blue Letter - uhm, this song is excellence. WHY isn't it played anymore??? It really should be played on the new tour. A great Stevie/Lindsey song.

World Turning - I know a lot of people don't like this one...but I think it's a fun song.

Sara - save the excuse that it's too hard to play live. If they can manage to bring a marching band on stage and play two songs with them...I'm thinking they can do this song on stage.

The Ledge - I've heard one bootleg of this song I think from one of the Melbourne shows in 1980...it's a fun little song on the album, and I think it could be a fun little song on stage.

Here I'll save time - almost ALL of the songs from Tusk!? Really, what's up with that?

Hold Me - I love this song, studio version, and live versions. What's the deal with it? Did the public really hate the song live or something on the mirage tour? It was played during the '82 Mirage tour, but was left off the "Mirage video," and hasn't been played in almost 20 years! IMO, this is one of Chris' best!

Eyes of the World - well there was that *ONE* night on the Dance tour, but it disappeared after that. On the album I thought it was a bit crappy, but all the live versions of it really rock.

Little Lies or Isn't it Midnight - gladly would I have rather seen one of these switched into the place of Everywhere on The Dance.

Tango in the Night - a Killer Lindsey song with an amazing guitar solo.

There are more that I have to complain about, a lot more, but I think this is enough for now. I just want to know if there's some reason that the band seemingly refuses to play some of these songs. Especially those that are practically demanded by some fans (i.e. Sara).
