ELI5: Why does hiking Mt. Everest continue to be such a deadly challenge with modern equipment?

It's so common to sustain terrible frost bite and even die when ascending the mountain. Hasn't the gear (i.e. Air supply tanks, thermal body wear etc.) improved vastly in the past several decades? It sounds ridiculous, but couldn't people wear the likes of a spacesuit?

Here's the thing... Reaching the summit of Mt Everest isn't that challenging when conditions are right, and it's not dangerous if you just follow orders.

But! Practically everybody who dies do so trying to reach the summit while ignoring conditional hazards. 

Climbing the mountain is the goal of everybody who goes there. People pay a lot of money to have the possibility to do so. Having the peak within eye distance and having to turn around because it's getting late is a really difficult thing to do. You're so close, yet so far.

Sadly a lot of people ignore the warnings and proceed anyway. Having to spend just 30 extra minutes on the mountain can be the difference between life and death.
