Why are the tunicates and lanceletes classified as invertebrate chordates?

Phylum Chordata simply consists of all animals that, at least in their embryonic phase, have a structure called the notochord.

Some primitive chordates, though, including the tunicates, lancelets, and hagfish, do not ever develop vertebrae, although they have/have had a notochord. Hence, Subphyla Urochordata and Cephalochordata, and Class Myxini are invertebrate chordates.
