You know why they do it like this? In fact you hinted at it already ... laziness!

A large part of the problem is that recruitment is often outsourced to external headhunters who write fat paychecks and don't do much more than put out canned job advertisements.

But all of this is to their own detriment ... candidates can nowadays often choose from multiple job offers. So if I see 3 companies and 2 of the 3 have this job ad that just sucks then it reflects negatively on them and chances are that I'll choose the third one.

It's their problem, not your problem ... remember, as of now this is still a "seller's market".
