They already do this. Many philosophers of science pursue realist interpretations of QM though, like de Broglie-Bohm, and so they aren't published very widely. The measurement problem is the serious stumbling block for anti-realist interpretations, and why many such philosophers are realists. The measurement problem just doesn't trouble practicing physicists.
