Because bumpers are what you replace the most. They take even minor scratches.
But i would like to suggest in case the bumber is bent, not cracked, go to a small shop. they will take it off, and then give heat to the interior side and shape it back to place. I recently got my indica bumber done this way. There was a big dent in bumper where plastic had completely bent along with the fender. These guys removed the fender dent, and the bumper dent without touching the paint. Same job at service center = 6000-7000 rs where 2500rs= bumper cost(Body colored) and rest is fenter repair, out of which about 2000 would have gone from my pocket, not to mention the no claim bonus lost!
