Because it only stays non-stick if you treat it with ridiculous care. No scratchy pads, no scrapes from the bases of other utensils etc. and even then it doesn’t last forever. Plus it is expensive and polluting to produce. Worth it for perfect fried eggs maybe, but not just to wipe down a sticky shelf. The toilet bowl idea is interesting though!
