If burying blood/carcasses is good for the soil why is putting meat products in compost bad?

When you put bury bodies/carcasses in soil it makes the vegetation grow well, but why do they ask you to not put meat in the compost bin?

Most people don’t know how to compost properly and so smells, pathogens, and invading critters become a problem. Grew up composting meat on a residential scale but we were really careful to build piles correctly and always cover the food with straw, sawdust, etc. to act as a filter for smell.
