This was actually deliberate in the design. One of the complaints from business travellers (the principal and most profitable users of the airport) was that the old airport resembled a creche at times. The lack of seating before security is to encourage departing passengers to pass through security as quickly as possible. You’ll find that there are very few pre-security seats in most newly built airports around the world nowadays.
