as a martial artist who has used spears they really arent as restricting as one might think, yes they have their limitations but they are good long and medium range weapons and considering that vikings used throwing spears in combat and reiklings get to implement this action  kind f kills that it wouldnt be practical. i think they could have used them but just maybe decided not to because oof mechanic they were trying to impliment but with that said at the same token seeing as its a norse type setting they could have use spears and coming from playing morrowind they were a fun weapon to use aswell as  the throwing knives and darts which would have added more to the emmersion of being an assasin character. hell even modders have found ways to make spear combat and throwing knives possible so really bethesda had no reason to truly not do it
