Because there's no way of rotating it and it looking good.  The only way to
get a real model of real 3D geometry is to capture it in some way to measure
depth and angles.  For instance, the laser method uses a laser to cast a
sharp line along the object(s)'(s) surface and then input video in infared
and deciphers the line's shape and distance to create the 3D geometry.

Highfields just aren't good enough for complex models.
