Why is it hard for the wishbone, or half wishbone to rotate around a fixed mast?
Because it is usually only attached with a single string, id the mast doesn't rotate, the attachment point on the mast needs to move as the sail does. This can be arranged using a strap, but adds complexity when the sail is raised, reefed and lowered.
