After 40 years of Franco, everybody was scared of a coup. In fact, in '81 a some military-police did try it, but fortunately failed. So it was kind of sensible not to tear up the country and provoke another war and/or dictatorship. You can't just "flip the country over" and go after basically everybody with any political, military, or economic power.
