Because it's part of A-6. The way the legal sized piece of paper is a requirement for Legal Eagle, or 3.1 grams is a requirement for LPP. The collection of rules define the event.

(Why is an elephant big, grey, and wrinkled? Because if it were small, round, and white it would be an aspirin. Get it?)

I'm not saying I'm a fan of condenser paper. Film is way easier for me to use. But if I ever build an A-6, it will be per the defined rules.

I don't like covering with tissue, either. But I suffered through it for my Bostonian and P-24.

If someone finds film easier to start with, there is no shortage of accessible events that allow it.
