Because you're vastly overestimating what it takes to warm a pitcher up much like managers do in reality. I'm not even convinced most pitchers would need to be "warmed" in the bullpen and they aren't doing more harm to them by forcing them to throw unnecessary pitches.
The strategy of RP is in picking the right reliever for the right situation.

Note to self: Princess Kenny was really off-putting.
