The simple answer is because nobody in this industry understands that the integrity of the information they provide is the bedrock of the game.
If you believe handicappers are investors, then you hire an information integrity manager whose job it is to make sure the players are getting the best information possible. If you believe they are degenerate gamblers, close enough is close enough.
Close enough seems to be the industry dynamic. Even the Racing Form seems to be operating under the principle of "More ink, less integrity" these days. (And if there is any entity that should have an information integrity ombudsmen whose contact information is prominently printed in every edition it is the Racing Form, if only to prevent them from reprinting mistake after reprinted mistake.)
And until the cavelier attitude towards providing the best information changes racing is going to be what it is. A business that draws in two dollar bettors with umbrellas with T-shirts and chases away potential two hundred dollar bettors with the sort of incident that happened to you yesterday.
My condolencess. Been there, got done like that.
