Because real life doesn’t work like that. Getting in hardware is harder than getting in people who already are likely in country because they are local assets not agents. You need to set it up, test it, move it to the target all without being detected and still have a backup plan and local observers to support it. It adds complexity and risk it does not reduce it and intelligence agencies dont like complicated.
