Is there any reason all EVs with battery heating elements cannot have battery preconditioning?

From what I understand, the large majority of EVs have heating elements in the battery in order to heat it up to operating temperature on cold days. However, far from every EV has battery preconditioning for charging.

And if a car does have these heating elements, why can't there just be a button you can press that starts heating the battery prior to arriving to a charging station? I don't really care how much time it could save you personally, point is it can save time for some people and it seems like a function that would not be very hard at all to implement. Or am I missing something?
