Comment (by leehodson):

 As we all point out, the issue with adding the link manually is that when
 the page link changes any links added manually must be edited manually. A
 shortcode that grabs the link solves this issue.

 I accept that theme and plugin authors could create their own shortcodes
 but this means lots of different developers adding their own snippet to
 call get_the_privacy_policy_link() in order to expose the same data.
 Adding a snippet to core would reduce plugin and theme code bloat and stop
 several dozen 'Privacy Link' plugins being added to the plugin directory.
