Why is this book never brought up with the other dystopian novels?

Fantastic dystopian novel, and was written before many of the more famous 20th cen dystopian books. It does a great job exploring free will at the cost of "efficiency" vs subjugation at the cost of humanity. Plus, I believe Zamyatin had synesthesia, and you can pick up on it in some of the more trance-like parts of the book.
It's great if you like dystopian themes, but not the dogmatic heavy-handedness that usually follows.
