You have been given a sound reason: ‘icomplete-vertical-mode’ can be
used with either ‘icomplete-mode’ or ‘fido-mode’. If it automatically
enabled ‘icomplete-mode’, it would no longer work with ‘fido-mode’.

The name is unfortunate because it is easy to get the idea that it is
“like icomplete-mode but vertical”, but the principle is good: one
choice between sets of functionality, and an orthogonal choice about
presentation.
