Because I can get a better "tool" for the job for less money. It's like comparing a new BMW to a Model T. Sure, some folks would love to have a Model T but really, the BMW would be a better driving tool then the Model T would be.
I love revolvers, pretty much cut my teeth on em' but for home defense I want as many rounds as I can get for those "bump in the night" situations. When you're in your underware with just a flashlight and a handgun you want all the "bang for the buck" that you can get. Sure, a good K or L frame would work but I'd not pay as much or more for something that'll limit my ability to defend myself as I would something that'd be a better tool for the job at hand.
I guess it all depends on your priorities and how much disposable income you have to spend on the tools you need.
