That probable makes sense if you stay inside and watch TV
and only turn the outside light on once a week.
If you're outside, a switch isn't always that handy when
and where tyou need it.
I don't have one and, when you get to mail where I discuss what is
permissible to do on the electric company's side of the meter (nothing)
and, what it costs to run underground cable and switches according to
the 1999 NEC (which they go by even in my neck of the woods) perhaps
you would see why putting them in - in the locations needed, would be
costly and unnecessary.

Yes - they should be out there putting in switches! :)
If, they should perchance glance away from the TV, they can see their
cattle and, they can't see but, know the coyote and human predators
it is keeping away.

Don't worry, I would make sure they were nowhere near you.
The extra woods and road they do shine on are appreciated
by the neigbors and visitors I have. In the country, almost all
are welcome all of the time and, we don't have to get up to turn
the light on for them. Just like Motel 6. :)
