I understand why normal people shouldn’t, but why shouldn’t lawyers represent themselves?

There are different rules in courts for “litigants” and “lawyers”. Lawyers have no obligation to anything other than winning. They can lie cheat steal bully harrass threaten and do just about anything they want.
The litigants are much more restricted on what they are allowed to do. If you are a litigant, you can’t just straight up lie to the courts. If you are NOT the litigant, but a lawyer, you can.
Few things are as lawless as a lawyer in a court of law.
