And they haven't been caught because the FBI is stupid, isn't allowed to do stuff like that anyway, probably doesn't know how TOR works, failed to go to Google and search "tor weaknesses" 
, and they don't have sufficient coordination to do an enter-exit attack nor would they be allowed to DDOS other people's TOR nodes and mount their own rigged ones to get to a sufficient control level for other attack methods. That's like 1/10th of the reasons lol.

The government uses tor for its own purposes, so it has little incentive to ddos nodes.

Oh and a server that receives 99.99999% SSL traffic and no normal traffic, that could happen in certain somewhat common normal circumstances but it would be at least suspicious enough that that would be the server a hosting company would look at to see if it contains things like text saying "silkroad."
SSL traffic is normal traffic. If an ssh tunnel is employed, there are no files to look at. You're grasping at straws in order to avoid admitting that you don't know enough about your topic.

plus, what if 1 single offsite image is posted as a link like as a product or something.
This would be a stupid thing to allow. I'd be surprised if this was possible on SR. Even beyond disallowing such an attack, the web server could easily be prevented from connecting anywhere without tor, a step that I doubt the SR admins have neglected to take.
By the way, you are mistaken about the "direct server to server link up"; you wouldn't catch the server's IP this way, only that of improperly configured SR users (more likely, just that of a tor exit node). Your server logs would only contain the hidden service hostname as the referer.

There's like 100 ways to catch these assholes, just most are seriously illegal so nobody's done it yet.
This is so naive it's cute.
