Because they can look appealing artistically, I'd say (although not everyone appreciates a certain look). We do this in other areas too... For instance, shallow depth-of-field in portraits doesn't deproduce backgrounds the way we see them in real time either - but it can look great. There are many other examples. They're all part of creating an image - a piece of art... not necessarily duplicating exactly what the eye perceives. Of course, commonly-used approaches can become cliched, but if the overall image is strong, we shouldn't shy away from using certain techniques because others may not like them...
