Letter boxes are also legally protected, but that's not the main reason only USPS does letters. They could dump them on your porch like they do packages. It's because it's a legal monopoly. And no, I'm not making it up.
See, for example USPS vs O'BRIEN: https://law.justia.com/cases/federal/district-courts/FSupp/644/140/1558673/ https://law.justia.com/cases/federal/district-courts/FSupp/6... ...which also handily cites the statutes.
