Because you can't get untrained 15 year olds to deal with your complex IT issues. The same with skilled manual work, if you get an untrained 15 year old to do your plumbing or electrics in a building prepare for the building to get wreaked. Cleaning, labouring - not so much.
We do this already with things like textile manufacturing, IT support, call centre work, and we profit from the labour of those less fortunate than us. Teleoperation is an attempt to widen this pool at the cost of those folks who provide labour locally to you and me who do skilled work that can't be replicated (at the moment at least).
