Because they provide managed services that VPS hosters don't have or which would require the overhead of maintaining and patching servers, and many people just want to get on with their lives instead of worrying about OS exploits...

That's why you take some kind of "managed hosting" where all of this is taken care of.

More like sth. starting at 35 €/month for 20 TB of traffic. Hetzner has something like that, shared managed webhosting is even cheaper.

But they do offer managed servers.
