Because the distance between the mouse and the keyboard needs to be as small as possible, or otherwise switching becomes frustrating.

I wonder how many of the mouse-haters have a numpad. I used to be one of them until I got rid of it.

Interestingly enough, that's one thing that actually works well for left handed people, the numeric keypad isn't in the way using full sized keyboards.

But you should've seen the incredulous look I got when I gave a USB number pad for Christmas to a left handed accountant.
