    Answer:
    Because pops have always been though of as a staple of pinball. And Stern figures it's a cheap and easy mech that takes up lots of playfield real estate. So it's just something to cut and paste easily into a design.
    Requires no thought it innovation. Keeping the profits up and BOM down.
