It's pretty much the same reason why most biology books prefer drawings over pictures. When you use full detail (like a picture for biology or color image for film), you're wasting the viewer's attention with stuff you quite possibly didn't mean to. By reducing the number of variables, you can be a lot more certain you will get the message through (in the case of biology, a particular anatomical feature that would be lost in the background noise; and in the case of film, a shadow play that would be lost in the background hue noise).

1. There's a difference there because the biology book is meant to convey information. Not convey emotion.

Are you really saying that drawings can't convey emotion?

2. You are not giving enough credit to true professionals who know all of this, and meticulously frame, light, and pick colors and color filters for shots.

And there are professionals that know that sometimes any color at all is distracting from what they want to convey.
