I was thinking something along the lines of only fully qualified wizards get
them. We know underage wizards can't use them outside school. Whatever
constitutes a fully qualified wizard, Hagrid isn't it, and if Dumbledore
asked him not to do magic, well, Hagrid's a loyal sort. He might just be
opting to not get a wand. Or he might know if he did Dumbledore would hear
of it.
