Some have but they are still nasty to fly when being in windy weather. Microlight means that those things have a maximum take off mass of 450 kg (at least over here) which makes them a flag in the wind so to speak. My flight instructor once said that he abandoned his microlight license as "A measure to prolong my life.". And that guy is doing aerobatics in gliders.
