I imagine it's hard for reviewers to quantify frame-rate into their score, since opinions on the topic vary lot. Group A will argue that drops to 20fps like in BotW are grounds to drop the score, while others will say all 30fps titles should get lower scores for not being 60fps. Frame-pacing issues can make some people feel sick, while others don't notice at all. Some like locked, others variables, and so on and so forth.
Considering all that, the best a reviewer can do is just mention the drops exist, then score based on how much is affected them personally. If they think BotW is a 10 despite the drops, then they should give it a 10.
