Because stereoscopic images are not 3D.
When looking at several objects placed at different distances in real life, your eyes will change focus from object to object. But with stereoscopic "3D", the focal plane remains constant whether or not the magic mushroom is "near" or "far."
The flat focal plane of stereoscopic images is not natural and can even mess with a child's developement of functional depth perception.
