Probably because it’s a long, tedious, repetitive task. Brushing teeth only take a minute or two, maybe three if you’re getting really thorough, whereas flossing thoroughly or consistently adds much more time to that. At least that’s my excuse
My old dentist suggested keeping floss wherever you sit to relax (his example was wherever you sit to watch TV).

It’s not a perfect solution, but it has been helping me.
