Because you need to do your own summarization or ask your
upstreams to do it for you. Until then, most of transit
accepts loosely prefixes in exact length but also longer
(i.e. /24 but also both /25s).

A couple of major service providers today permit 
announcements of any length, provided they are registered in 
an IRR that they use to build filters.

Of course, there are no guarantees that prefixes typically 
longer than general industry practice permits will see the 
light of day beyond their network.
