Why is it not possible to create a pool with single disks with no redundany while this can be created via CLI?
(sudo zpool create -o ashift=12 zpool /dev/sda /dev/sdb)

You already know the "workaround", so you do not ask this as a technical question but to get a policy related answer from Proxmox staff, right?

My personal statement would be: Good so! Nobody wants a datastore with zero redundancy. But that's just my opinion, not an answer... ;-)

But also a single drive would have no data redundancy! So this is probably NOT the reason :). I think they simply forgot to add this to the code.
And as a lazy person i would like to do it in GUI of course.
