To me this means:

  • They couldn’t figure out how to do it, or

  • It was too expensive to implement, and

  • They’ll just get the NSA to share the data with them at a fraction of the cost

You forgot one:

  • They'll quietly re-introduce it in another 6-18 months.

How is it impossible? Just proxy all the SSL connections, use MITM certificates and break/inspect the data, capturing it to your own PCAP Servers.

EDIT: There’s more to it than that, but these are some of the fundamentals.
