Besides the practicality mentioned by the sibling commenters, there's also the limits part. Google/Apple Pay don't suffer from the low limits physical cards have for contactless payments ( it was 20 euros pre-pandemic here, now it's 50 or 100). Your phone having biometric auth is considered enough by banks to not have limits.
