Because they are idiots?

Honestly though no matter what super duper highly available stronger than titanium architecture they have, um, 'stuff happens'.

Remember that your users do not care about titanium or super cooled network connections, turbo processing, 100% flash storage, GW turbo-charged CAT Generators, multi-hour run time UPS, eyeball only access data center doors, or awesome blinking lights. What they care about is accessing their applications. If they can't do that even if it's because a mouse took a leak on a connection in a box on the street that you don't control, if they cannot access their application: YOU ARE DOWN.

Redundancy on such basic services as DNS is mandatory. Period.
