Because people are generally becoming less 'car technically savvy' by the day.
What are the terms and conditions of the manual over ride? How many km between uses? At what temperature? At what RPM?
You would be very surprised to know how many people have no clue where the coolant goes, where their spare is kept, what PSI range they should run their tyres at, hell, even the difference between fresh air and re-circulate for the vents.
Relying on an average user to do that much thinking on a critical component of the car is asking for trouble.
