Because there isn't any way for those addons to predict if they're going to crash.
They could code in as much fail safe code as they like. It doesn't change the fact that when something in an addon crashes the addon maker often can't predict that it's going to crash.
Most of the time another programmer points out a flaw in their code and the addon programmer codes around it / rewrites their code to get rid of the flaw.

Someone else must remove the cats. All have iPods." ( http://community.livejournal.com/tec...t/2018070.html)
