Costs money (travel) and time (company's) plus a lot of this is outsourced to agencies to do the screening.
Yes, it is disgusting. Sadly also very common.

Ah weird, here in Europe if you apply for a job in another city or country they won't fly you out there. You can come on your own dime and usually you wouldn't even tell them you don't live there yet (after all if you don't even live there, why would they bother with you, it's only extra hassle for them when you start). Probably C-suite roles are an exception to this. But they're an exception to pretty much everything. Roles with particular foreign languages (e.g. support) too but this is also an edge case.
Moving personnel between countries when they are already working for the company does happen. They did it for me. But at that point they already know what they have.
