Because when you build it you aren't, presumably, polling their servers every fifteen minutes for the entire corpus. AI scrapers are currently incredibly impolite.

Plenty of public funded data isn't made free and public access. Sometimes you need to pay, or get a license, etc depending on what you're doing with it.
