Maybe because it might make it impossible to photograph close-ups of QR codes without actually scanning them?
In the sense that making the default camera app into a QR scanner entails that in a certain subset of use-cases it becomes impossible to take a photograph and not undertake a scan.
Whether this is considered an issue by those studying such matters is unknown to me; I'm just speculating wildly.
