If you wanted a "hole" to put your hand in (presumably for protection), you'd use something with a basket hilt or a just bigg(er) crossguard. Anything under the hand would just get in the way, unless you're holding the sword exactly perpendicular to your hand. You're sacrificing necessary mobility for little to no protection. And assuming it didn't get in the way, it would make the sword awkward to swing. No pommel means no balance.
And it's ugly.
