I use a wireless mouse from Logitech for work (and so does a lot of my coworkers), and never in its ~5 years of use did I use the mouse plugged in.
The device gives multiple low battery warnings well in advance. I just plug it in before logging off after I receive the second or third warning.
I acknowledge Apple’s obtuseness of choosing form over function with the Magic Mouse (among other devices across their catalogue), but anyone who has used a wireless mouse daily would know that it is not as big of a deal as the media and community makes it out to be every time a discussion takes place about the Magic Mouse.

I have a mental disorder. I can easily forget to bring a cable with me so the battery will get much lower than the 10% low battery threshold. I can then KEEP FORGETTING to charge it. When I'm finally with a cable, it's nice to be able to use it plugged in.
I think this whole situation shouldn't be a WHY question, but a WHY NOT?
