We need our starports to produce medivacs/vikings...... and we're so busy managing our marine/tank/thor composition, that throwing a raven in there is a lot of work for us.
We would probably have to build a separate starport JUST for a raven, and even then Ravens, while effective for detection and harasses, are slow, and hard to keep track of

The most common reason I hear is that they're so flimsy and get picked off really easily, and they're really slow. (Jinro and a couple of others said this). It's also annoying to work them into your builds when you want to get out those medivacs two at a time, but still I'd like to see it tried.

I honestly wish I knew. Having a couple of ravens out by the time you hit the midgame is incredibly useful in every single matchup. I've made a concerted effort to incorporate it into most of my builds. It can be a bit awkward to work it in because of the high cost and the fact that you don't often go tech lab starport if you're not going for banshees early, but it's still worth the effort.
