Because statistical inference does not create complex operating models designed to fit a subset of reality from a larger encompassing model of reality which humans base our daily decisions and life philosophies. Just because we do not deep dive into the complexities of existential questions every waking moment does not say we're not operating scaffolds which depend upon prior existential examinations. We're complex to say the least, and we require reasons - and that very idea: reason is what is not present in statistical inference. Without a prior body of human conversation, statements, and larger expressions of philosophy based upon human reason, statistical inference goes nowhere.
