He didn't do that with Cracker despite being YC and some said he would come back in the end, but didn't.
Well... Except the fact that this was "headcanon" by fans that Cracker will be back
Let's all remember the differences here, shall we?
1- Fire Festival will happen about 2 weeks from now. Page 1 has two weeks to recover (if he was unconscious to begin with) .. remember that Drake knew about "Osoba mask" name probably from Page1 himself...
On the other hand, WCI tea part was only 1 day after Luffy vs Cracker battle... (Cracker has no time to recover... and also the OUTCOME of the battle was Shown in manga as Cracker is DEfEATED unlike page1
2- Cracker's originall body was hinted to be a glass cannon... weak against pain... while Page1 is not only Zoan who are tough and can withstand more close combat attacks... he's freaking Ancient Zoan.. Their recovery is faster
I hope you see how much big of a difference
Page1 could have returned to Onigashima for all we know... maybe he's with some other flying 6 members now... maybe he's chatting with one of the numbers... Oda is just not intending to show him YET.. that's all
But you guys can all be happy.. we are finally invading Onigashima in manga.. so we will see if Page one is among their troops there OR if he's not
If he was not shown... then I will admit that I was wrong anf anime fucked up big time... but if he was shown.. then you guys can at least accept the fact that Toei do communicate with Oda on some specifics... and start to trust the anime a bit more
