Why master user that was created when configuring RDS has no sysadmin role on created server?

I've started RDS SQL Server. At that moment a master user was created as well. I can connect to my SQL server with SQL management studio. The question is why doesn't my user have sysadmin role?

Its one of the tradeoffs when using SQL Server on RDS, you don't get complete administrator-level access to the server.

This page tells you the restrictions you will have:
