They had to justify their funding to AT&T management :-)

Unix's first real job, in 1971, was to support what would now be called
word processing for the Bell Labs patent department; the first Unix
application was the ancestor of the nroff(1) text formatter. This
project justified the purchase of a PDP-11, a much more capable
minicomputer. Management remained blissfully unaware that the
word-processing system that Thompson and colleagues were building was
incubating an operating system. Operating systems were not in the Bell
Labs plan - AT&T had joined the Multics consortium precisely to avoid
doing an operating system on its own.
