Megashifter it's just not practical for Dodge to put a larger engine in the new R/T's when none of the other Dakota's use it.  You have to think about manufacturing costs.  Besides that the R/T doesn't have a huge market, most people who want performance like that end up buying a car, not so many buy a pickup.

As for "no replacement for displacement", much as I love old musclecars and huge motors that statement is a complete myth.  I've seen videos of 1000+ wheel hp integras, that's a lot of horses for a little 4 banger.  Plus if you look at power to weight ratios.  The K20a in the Acura RSX-S was the first engine I know of to break 100hp/liter N/A (stock).
