Any word on why miners are not bothering to activate yet? Surely with only a 55% hurdle there's not a lot of incentive to wait until mandatory signaling. Is that 4% really what they're holding back for?

Miners waiting for Klaus Schwab's blessing, no doubt.
Miners prioritize self-interest, as they should. "Nature is indifferent to virtue," they act accordingly.
If they have no incentive to activate then it's not clear why they ever would. The whole point of a UASF is to exert leverage on the miners. Nodes can set rules but rules without blockspace do not a chain make.
