It's the lack of automatic opening/closing hardware and consequent safety issue of passengers potentially trying to enter or exit a moving train. Also, for most doors some stops will have raised platforms and some won't. Passengers opening and closing the appropriately-named "traps" themselves to switch between level exit and stair exit would be hazardous.
