Because the more time House Republicans spend looking like clowns who can't agree on simple things, the less time they have to use their power to make Democrats look bad. And, again, politicians are very, very petty, and this kind of clownshow tends to feed that pettiness. They'll back McCarthy for committee chairs or a split rules committee so that they can block the Republicans from using congressional power to make them look bad, but anything short of that is of less value to them than watching the Republican caucus tear itself apart over mostly petty grudges.
Dems should be offering this deal to any mildly popular Republican. It would cause even more strife on the right and they'd actually get something at the end.
