Probably because blowing out a Hunchback's side-torso is a little bit harder than destroying a Centurion's giant ***** arm, because a Hunchback is a smaller target, because the Hunchback can generally carry more and better weapons, and because the Centurion is a crapbox.
Any centurion pilot who loses their ballistic arm regularly (assuming they have weapons in there anyways) is a bad pilot. You have a huge shield arm to protect it with. A ballistic hunchback has no such luxury. Very hard to shield that hump.
