Has it become unfashionable for employers to send "thanks but no thanks" letters to unsuccessful job applicants?

Yes.

Worse yet, HR doesn't even tell the people inside the company, so no one knows until the job applicant emails going "so?". I've had N (n>5) referrals 'die' in this fashion.

Same here. If my friend who schedules the interviews doesn't tell me, completely outside the process, I never hear what happens to my referrals (unless we hire them, but that hasn't happened yet).
