They're fashion statement, most people don't care about sound quality.
Unless you have a proper sound card / dac and a really nice headset I doubt investing in FLAC will transcend your listening experience.
On top of that most people listen from their phone, during commute, at the gym etc ... no need for flac in these conditions.
It's the same thing with photography, you can get a 300$ dslr that has more options than any slr. Yet the vast majority of people will be happy with their phone camera.
