I know there’s a reason, but I don’t know what it is.

it is like having multiple colored clays all mushed together in a ball , say you want to remove Red Clay. if Red clay does not take up too much space, is relatively still together is and big part of it is at surface , yo can just cut most of it pretty easily. But
There might still be bits of clay scattered in rest of the ball, can’t start cutting every small bit out or maybe majority of it is inside of the ball, it would make just cutting it difficult.

Kinda same with Cancer cells if they are concentrated in one spot that can be easily accessible and cut without doing too much damage to rest of body , they are cut but with Clay analogy it is not always an option
