It wouldn't surprise me if Lucas didn't specify Disney agreeing to not releasing the theatrical cuts as a stipulation of the sale. He's been trying to bury those since the beginning. Last I heard he claimed they were too damaged to release.
Didn't the theatrical cuts release with the first DVD sets well before the takeover? (Albeit yeah, that's 480p.)
They did, they're a special feature on the 2008 Limited Edition dvd trilogy.
