Because they don't establish deletability. There was a recent discussion on this list about that, but I can't seem to find it.
I remember recently suggesting that any nomination that includes the words "non-notable" or "cruft" ought to be treated as a speedy keep (with the intent of making people work a little harder on explaining why a nomination ought to be deleted), but I can't find my email on the topic either. I also remember someone disagreed about treating "non-notable" in this way, so that is as far as *that* proposal went.
Assuming that there is a consensus concerning use/abuse of the word "cruft", then only one of your Speedy Keeps would be justified on that basis:

Was this deprecation of the word "cruft" pointed out?
