I don't really see what valuable gameplay elements it would add. It's like asking why don't we give Samus a 9 foot katana to attack with in her left hand? Sure you could do it, but why?
actually thats a pretty good idea .....it would be an interesting twist. Say the space pirates have a plan to travel to another dimension , Samus jumps in follows them ie like time splitters. They enter a diffrent planet where technology hasn't really evolved the creatures there are like barbarians using swords and what not.  Her beam canon stops working correctly so she has to find other things to use as weapons.  Finds a legendary katana starts whooping ass with it and taking names.  With new combo system grappling beam to katana slash ect, . .............Don't mind me i'ved been watching too much Afro Samurai

 Um no, not what I was trying to get at.

What exactly can a kick to the shin accomplish that a bolt of sizzling plasma couldn't do better?

well if you want to have Samus do physical attack just go play smash series -_-, tho I did enjoy kicking ass with Samus in subspace using smash attacks, combos, kicking, and beating the crap out of Ridley .

I'm talking about like a push or you could hit something with her beam. NOthing really complex.Just enough for close-combat situations. It would be cool to hit a metroid when it's coming to latch on to your face and then it gets surprised and in that delay you shoot it. Or to push of a space pirate or metroid that is latched on to you.
