Why brass instead of resin?

I think the problem with resin lays in the cost, because kits start in the $30+ price range,unpainted and needs trucks and couplers, where stoa plastics run around half that with lettering and trucks and couplers. I just checked out prices on three great boxcar kits in resin and the price is over $100 and I still need paint and even decals for one,that's a lot of money for realistic modeling. Now I know these are one of a kind kits and brass if available would be triple that, it's still a costly prospect and not everyone wants to shell out that kind of cash.
