Cinematically it makes a lot of sense. There is a major climax at the battle of pelennor fields and then another climax at the black gate/Mt. Doom. They really need to wind it down and close up. If they had to add the scouring of the shire it would be a climax to near the end for this movie. Also it would have added far too much time at the end.
