Because you want to spend your time serving your clients, not your regulators.
When I am not helping my clients serve their clients, I enjoy going on adventures with my family; supporting the Nationals, Capitals, Commanders and Old Glory DC; and participating in various CSAUP (Completely Stupid And Utterly Pointless) athletic events with my friends. You will even find me serving pancakes (among other duties) from time to time at Calvary United Methodist Church.
