I like how they show it right at the start of the series, letting you know this will be a regular occurrence.
My theory is that it made the writing too easy and was an escape out of half the challenges they face, so they stopped using that as a solution in the show.
That, plus pacing and special-effects budget (assuming they don’t just want to reuse the same footage every time, like a magical girl transformation in a low-budget anime).
