I wonder why? One is full of bacteria (possibly with other
viruses, parasites) - and of fluctuating chemical composition
- while the other is sterile clean, and formulated to exactly
match the plant's chemical needs.

I believe that it is sterilized beforehand else the bags would have a
biohazard symbol on them.
