Because it's one of the primary normative consequences for illegal activity, and people assume that the executives are culpable for the deaths of hundreds and that that's illegal.

So I guess then the question to ask becomes "Is there a point at which these short-term loans become problematic, and if so, what are the signs it's hit that point, and what are the consequences of failing to stop that point from
