1. Jack is too cool for that 2. The background info of Jack and the Face of Boe don't mesh 3. It was a rather tossed-off moment to explain the entire life and death of a major hero 4. Jack has limbs; Boe doesn't 5. Jack is immortal; Boe died 6. Their personalities and priorities seem very different (can I imagine Jack, at any age, becoming laconic?)
I'd say it adds up to a sort of "you can't get there from here" scenario... Jack doesn't map into Boe however I look at it.

Boe doesn't flirt enough to be Jack.
