ELI5: Why can't all pills be chewable and fruit flavored?

I have to take a pill twice a day for my abnormal cholesterol and it tastes awful, I have to drink it very quickly with orange juice, and if it touches my tongue it tastes like rotten lemons, Why can't all pills be like flinstones vitamins?

EDIT: Thanks for all the answers, I understand why they can't all be chewable, but still a little sugar coating wouldn't hurt.

Probably several reasons, but here's what occurs to me first:

Chewing a tablet releases the medicine much more quickly, and can allow it to be absorbed much quicker, too. For some medicines that's a good thing. But other medicines simply *aren't supposed* to be absorbed quickly, and need a delayed release for maximum effect.

Making it taste like delicious raspberries would just *encourage* people to chew it quickly, defeating the point of the pill in the first place. If it tastes like rotten lemons, you're going to get it down with as little interference as possible.
