The obvious reason to disallow is when two players want to racepick, could end up in an endless cycle of, oh he chooses this now? And if they make them choose blind it could largely result in rock paper scissors (in certain cases). Best analogy is in baseball when a pitcher pitches with both arms (rare but happens) and the hitter is switch, the pitcher will always want lefty vs left or righty vs right, while batter wants lefty vs right or righty vs lefty. In those cases they make the batter choose a side first.

All that said, i like racepicking and the case above is rare and still interesting when it happens, even if it leaves up the result more to chance than usual.
