SRS is big enough to cause them bad publicity and has the reach to really cause them some strife. That's the real answer, its a cost:benefit analysis and frankly its not worth it to piss that large of a community off.
The smaller ones that are self contained get the axe though.
Its the same reason the are "quarantining" some subreddits to keep them of the default page but /r/wtf stays, despite it having some pretty awful shit posted there on the regular.
Its not fair but its the way of the world. Unfortunately the site isn't exactly inhabited y adults.
