Because the Jailbreak makes use of the x86 dll's provided in older iTunes versions.
The newer x64 iTunes versions don't have those dll's

Has there been any conversation on the twittersphere about an osx app for jb?
They always make the OS X version second. A week from now we'll see one. Besides, they still have quite a few bugs to iron out. I wouldn't jb yet on a daily device

Nope

Also the fix is delayed:

Stop! With the whining they are not just fixing the kernel they are fixing the Apple Watch bug and the 20% issues!

I think I read somewhere that you can jailbreak 8.4 with a MODIFIED Taig 2.0.0. I think you have to change a file inside of the installer package, that checks for particular IOS version. I remember doing that with iOS (something) awhile back. It would then Jailbreak the newer version of it. (it slips my mind which versions were involved.) I don't think the poster was posting "false" information, just not "detailed" information.

BTW: Cydia was updated to 1.1.7

Well you might not have the right tool for that.
Even i0n1c hinted at that...

Cydia has been updated fixing the error of packages not downloading and not able to log in to own account

I updated Cydia but now the list of installed/purchase packages just sits at a blank screen (I don't get the message that it can't identify my device anymore, but instead a blank screen).

we dont have the right to modified whats inside their program. that is why only up to 8.3
respect what they offer and we need to wait..

Exactly, that doesn't make it false information....
We just don't know yet if the exploits are closed on 8.4 or not.

If some-one claims it works and a leading security researcher hints at it, then it might be true, we'll have to wait and see

Quote from Saurik:
"So, while I can handle an arbitrary amount of traffic to apt.saurik.com (for package downloads), tens of thousands of people all trying to use Manage Account at the exact same time is not something that Cydia was designed to handle very well ;P. This is going to "fun"..."

I successfully Jailbroke my 5S, 6+ and Retina Mini this morning.

For some reason, I had to let the Taig app run the full course till it failed for each device and then try again. The second time worked on each device. I updated substrate using the file that was released.

I successfully jailbroke my iPhone 6 today but when I installed the tweaks and apps, they simply did not appear so I did the fix with the Preference Loader or whatever it was called. It didn't work so apparently something is wrong with my jailbreak. I am doing a clean restore and will probably jailbreak again in a week or two when they iron the bugs out.
I am definitely not going to recommend you jailbreak your everyday device at this point.
