Because headless CMSs aren't my core business. Because WordPress allows me to focus on what's relevant to me and my business.
Could I run my business website on a headless CMS and a build pipeline? Absolutely.
Why should I though? WordPress allows me to manage my content without having to deal with the technical details of doing so.
A headless CMS provides zero benefit to me while at the same time incurring additional infrastructure management and administration costs.
With WordPress there's a huge amount of plugins for every imaginable use case. For most headless CMSs that's probably not the case. So, I might run into a dead end later on should I realise that I need an additional feature the CMS I opted for doesn't support.
In terms of WordPress security issues, most of those are caused by dodgy plugins. Doing some research before installing a new plugin and selecting plugins carefully will get you a long way.
Additionally, there are services such as WordFence that alleviate many potential security issues.
