Because it demonstrates that all the money that is needed to "fund" educational videogames is already in the system; with how much money is being wasted you could probably ensure that every child had their own computer that was fully loaded with state of the art educational software.
On top of this, if the software is funded through schools buying the effective products you are going to end up with far better solutions than a large government organization handing out sums of money to companies based on arbitrary (or often corrupt) criteria.
