Because just like security, it takes a lot of work. You can't just add another JavaScript library or set one HTTP Header and magically make your website super fast forever. You have to learn best practices, follow them, and fine tune your app for the best experience. A lot of people (whether it be care or money) don't take the time to get it right. Which is why it feels awesome when you find a site that does.
