Because a single stinger can only attack a single target per turn. Never

been in a situation where you want to split your fire rather than spend
32+ 
beam dice on killing a single corvette?

And, of course, if you play Cinematic you usually want more than an 
180-degree arc of fire. Sure, the SV are usually maneuverable enough to 
keep any single stinger pointing towards the enemy (particularly if it
is 
offset-arced), but that maneuverability costs power which could have
been 
used for firepower had you invested in another Stinger :-/
