It's just an easy balancing mechanic. Kat/Diana/Akali might have ranged attacks too, but honestly, a barrel from Gragas can hit for like 1-2-3 of the 'ranged attacks' from these champions.

Some champions that lacked MR increase per level were buffed with that some time ago. If Gragas wasn't amongst them, it might be for some reason. I'm pretty sure he doesn't need that at all. He already has a sustain passive (which honestly i can't tell how strong it is, but seems to be nice at least) and an unlimited buff to his stats from W that costs him nothing (and that can be valued for about 1600-1700 gold at lvl 1). Giving him scaling MR would probably make him an unmmovable champ on mid lane.
