Because farming gives you the same amount, if not, more loot then you would in a strike or whatever. Why go through the trouble of constantly dying, leaving teammates, and bullet sponge bosses when you have an easier time getting 5 times the rewards farming the cave.
Don't deny it, YOU KNOW ITS TRUE!!!

Personally, I find doing Strikes more fun than staring into a cave and shooting a few guys every couple of seconds. There's no movement. No risk. Nothing to get your blood pumping. The few times I do decide to farm, I run over to Venus, where it sometimes breaks out into all-out war between the Vex and the Fallen like some kinda sci-fi version of the Capulets and the Montagues.
