Why all dictionaries shy from defining 'freshwater' as potable water?

Most dictionaries avoid defining "freshwater" as potable water because the term "freshwater" specifically refers to water that contains low levels of salt, not necessarily that it is suitable for drinking. Potable water, on the other hand, refers to water that is safe for human consumption. While freshwater sources can sometimes be potable, not all freshwater sources are considered safe for drinking due to potential contamination.
