It's just a pain in the ass designing cover art to put on an SD card label.
I'm often amused by worries about reproducibility. In my opinion, the fault is really with the payment systems, which are structured around finite product quantities. It's amazing how much work companies will go to in order to defend their payment systems. They try to cripple forward-moving markets in hopes of keeping a predictable old financial model.
