I figure that Carter has no real power and therefore can't make any promises/concessions to try and secure release, whereas the North Koreans would be very tempted to play hardball with the Secretary of State, and vice versa.
Wouldn't be surprised if this is the preferred policy.
It does North Korea no good to be holding Americans hostage, it does the US no good to openly confront NK right now.
