My pet theory is that this is because of the assembly line way of thinking of studios. Script -> Casting -> Shooting -> VFX -> Editing -> Profit.

It takes time to develop a good idea and script. If you force a writer to adhere to a strict schedule you'll get a rush job and bad writing. As long as money keeps flowing in, their assembly line theory is validated.
