Because in a fight you may not have a choice, and in a fight pain/ damage to your opponent is commonly the goal,
You may only have 30 seconds to go before someone breaks it up and in that time you want to cause the maximum damage/ pain that is possible.
If your fighting multiple opponents you have only a few seconds, 3/4/5 maybe, to dispatch an opponent, before his friends join in, you need to hurt / damage him as much as possible in that time, messing about putting him an arm bar will only get you hurt. If all you can do is slash him up with a ring then that's all you can do, at the vet least he is in hospital with you gettibg,stitched up, which will make you feel better
At the simplest level of I was in a mount, if rather hit the guy with an elbows to get him off, than just get him off, noR are escape from mounts always possible, no matter what technique you use, so just hurt him if you can, it's really the best idea not to go to ground and if you do, do not end up on the bottom, no matter what you do, your going to end up taking some heavy punches if the guy mounts you, escaping when you've been punch unconscious may be difficult
You keep changing the context.
Of course an arm bar isn't suitable in all situations.
The rings are gimmick's.
If the guys mounted you how are you going to elbows him? You posture up to strike in top mount.
