Why is ketchup not called tomato sauce?

It is in some regions & contexts in England (Example)

It's also sometimes called 'red sauce' as a comparison to brown sauce e.g. I'll be asked 'do you want red or brown' when buying a bacon butty from a shop.

This is because tomato sauce is less sugary, I believe.
