Plus there's the part where revealing all of that would also reveal how very little Buffy knows of Angel any more which would be a downer given their great 'epic' universe-fated 'wuv' that's worth the destruction of lives and worlds.
Yeah, I think that's also part of it - the Bangel relationship doesn't really fit the story Joss wanted to tell, so they just ignored that bit. Much like Willow being insecure about using magic and afraid of going dark again didn't fit the story they wanted to tell in Angel S4, so we end up with Willow the super-witch instead.
