Why they didn't I can't answer that, I'm not Nissan. Although I can say the current 7AT feel like a DCT. Ive been in many DCT cars along with SMG cars and they feel pretty similar to the Z. The Z's up shifts and down shifts give you the feel of the shifts where as the G37 with the apparent same 7AT feels very weak and you feel nothing down shift or up shifting compared to the Z. The 7AT is very quick and responsive when it's in Manual mode. Honestly even if there were a DCT I really don't see the car being a better performer in significance. I've seen sluggish AT and the Z is not one of them.
