why not get a dedicated device?
For the same reason I don't want to carry a big heavy DSLR around with me, because there's a limited number of devices I want to lug around.
I ditched the DSLR years ago (yes, it took great photos, but not enough to make it worth the hassle). Though I still bring a pocket sized camera with me when I travel because my smartphone still can't compete with a big sensor and an optical zoom.
While a dedicated MP3 player is small (to be honest, I didn't even know they were still made), it's just one more thing to keep track of and keep charged up.

Fiio also makes some similar mobile DAC/amps.
