^ and even more importantly, beyond it just being "traditional", I don't see where the political will to get rid of "last call" and switch to 24-hour liquor service would even come from.
The percentage of the voting public that actually gives a shit about this issue is vanishingly small. No politician is going to make it a significant policy position to garner votes.
When there are serious economic interests involved, like casinos, the politicians will actually make specific exceptions because $$$, but generally speaking, nowhere close to enough people really care about whether bars have to close at 2:00am or 4:00am or whenever. It just doesn't affect that many people in the grand scheme of things.
