Yup what has already been said and let me add yet again.
Load length. The round is just too danged long. You have to have a certain amount of steel in the grip frame, and a certain amount in the magazine wall, and enough gap for the magazine to load, etc etc etc. Pick up a DE 44 mag sometime. It is the gawkiest thing I have ever handled.
I will stick with my 1911A1 in 45 auto thankyouverymuch.

Then I commended mirth, because a man hath no better thing under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, and to be merry: for that shall abide with him of his labour the days of his life, which God giveth him under the sun. - Ecclesiastes 8:15 KJV
"The gun has been called the great equalizer, meaning that a small person with a gun is equal to a large person, but it is a great equalizer in another way, too. It insures that the people are the equal of their government whenever that government forgets that it is servant and not master of the governed." - 40th President of the United States Ronald Reagan 1911-2004
