It's more of Araki dealing with the monster that he created. What I mean is that Dio with both the power of tW and vampirism would have been plain and simple, overpowered. Like with Fugo, Araki acknowledged that his stand was way too op and that's why it only had one fight. Which is why Fugo ended up not betraying Passione and was just written out instead of his original story role (Which is a whole other story itself). Maybe just Araki forgot or even it was just Dio thinking that tW's power alone would have to be enough to defeat the crusaders. There's no real answer to this (Unless Araki did actually answer this and idk about it).
