Because people in the UK have accepted the FPtP system for centuries. It's easy to understand, and each area elects an individual, which again is easy to understand. And since neither of the big two parties want to change the system, it's never seriously raised as a political issue.
There are lots of systems that are easy to understand and clearly very silly.
"Let's all do what Bob says" is about as simple as you can get, but even sillier than FPTP. Mind you, a lot of people would defend that too, I suspect, especially if Bob had a flashy crown.
