In addition to the symptom-based explanations given so far, the pancreas is really difficult to remove or operate on. There is a surgery (the Whipple procedure) for it, but it is a highly traumatic replumbing of your insides. It would wreck even the healthiest person, so many people simply opt not to go for it and let nature take its course.
