You can't easily go buy a fraction of every stock in the S&P 500 whereas I can easily go buy a fraction of the coins in the Coinbase index. This means it is easy for me to go turn $100 into a market cap weighted index of the 4 coins on Coinbase, but it would be impossible for me to go turn $100 into fractional shares of all the companies in the S&P 500.
