Tallow and other fats used to make soap were more valuable to the public than gold. Using those fats for soap was the same as pouring them out with the chamber pot contents.

Meaning soap was not a good use of precious raw materials.

Yet they did not invent soap. No need, they already had it.
Sort of like complaining that this generation did not invent paper.
