It is the deliberate choice of many sellers to use the "current system" as it usually
currently functions just so they don't have to deal directly with buyers or
have them previewing their properties unescorted. Should they wish to
take on most of the process themselves there are already other options
besides the classic agent/seller arrangement. "Help U Sell" and "Buy
Owner" come to mind. Besides, most everything in the contract between
the agent/broker and the seller (or buyer) is negotiable. Most sellers
prefer the insulation the classic arrangement provides.
