It's a historic thing. I'm sure others can clarify this, but I think DC was initially intended to be solely the seat of the federal government, and not to necessarily evolve into the pretty big city with a population that exceeds several states...
Yes, that’s well stated. Also, when DC was originally created by incorporating parts of Maryland and Virginia it fell far below the population threshold for statehood.
