It works fine in R2020b, are you using an older release?
syms x y z
vec1 = [x y z];
vec2 = [x y z];
x = cross(vec1, vec2);
Result
>> x
x =
[0, 0, 0]

Especially back in those days, a lot of the numeric functions did not check specifically that their arguments were numeric. They just went ahead with the calculations, and if the calculations happened to involve an operation not possible on the variable type you were using, you would get an error in that particular operation.

Also, inside cross.m file, it specifically mentions that it supports single and double classes. However, it works fine for other datatypes too
>> a = randi(10, 1, 3);
b = randi(10, 1, 3);
>> cross(a, b)
ans =
-14 37 -10
>> cross(int8(a), b)
ans =
1×3 int8 row vector
-14 37 -10
