I think sound techs that bury keys generally do not understand how they should sound in the mix.  In short, they are afraid of them and so keep them low in the mix so nothing bad happens.  Combined with that is the absurd notion that some techs have that keys just provide a background, filling, or fattening sound, but never are spot-lighted, and should never be noticed - that's for guitar players and drummers!
