Why aren't all guitars equipped w/ pinless bridges

My question, after owning Lowdens, a Breedlove, and a McElroy, all w/
pinless bridges, for guitars thaT are not trying to be historically
correct copies of old Martins, Gibsons, ect.
Why aren't all guitars equipped w/ pinless bridges?

They seem to be better in everyway that I can see. Are there any
structural problems w/ pinless bridges?
