Default 3 Piece Wheels

When I were a lad, and all this was fields and we had jumpers for marshall points, my Kyosho cars had 3 piece wheels. Meant you could get away with a couple of sets and swap tyres readily. Given we now use inserts too, I wonder why (aside from weight) why they are still not in use, given the relatively high levels of aggravation involved in re-using wheels? I see drivers having boxes full of tyres on wheels, most of which they probably rarely, if ever, use.

Just a thought?
