Because Very Rapid Healing is a realistic advantage and Regeneration is not. As a GM, when I'm running a game where the humans are realistic humans, I'm not going to allow the players to pick up Regeneration with a UB in the same way I wouldn't let them shoot lasers out of their eyes with a UB. Humans can't do those things. So they can't get it, not even with a UB. That leaves them the option of Rapid Healing or Very Rapid Healing.
