Well the main thing was that there was a Cold War going on at the time which meant (amongst other things) that there was a total lack of trust on all sides and so any proposal like this was always a nonstarter. But you also need to note that Adenauer hated Prussia, Prussians and (especially) their city, so it isn't as though he'd have jumped at such a proposal even if it was regarded as entirely genuine in all respects.
