I've wondered the same. It looks like that filtering happened in Mitaka:

https://review.openstack.org/#/c/277881/

I'm surprised that didn't happen in a microversion since it changed the 
behavior of the API response.

If you read the bug report, it looks like the motivation was really 
around the fact that the API services were showing up in a 'down' state 
even though they really weren't down.

Another thing to keep in mind here are the other actions available in 
the os-services API, like PUT /os-services/disable so you can disable a 
nova-compute service so it's taken out of scheduling decisions. 
Disabling an API service doesn't make sense, nor any other 
non-nova-compute service, as noted in this thread [1] recently.
