Because BQ is great for the ETL/data warehouse/BI use case but is terrible for online applications. I tried using BQ as the backing store for an online analytics application back in late 2019, and it was so much worse than using Clickhouse/Druid/Pinot for the same use case. IDK how much that has changed since, but I'm not too terribly surprised that it isn't higher.
