Because the delta between the price of the "Porsche Approved" and aftermarket is negligible given the crucial importance of the component and the number of miles that will be achieved. You may be correct, it may be the case of paying a premium for no reason but how do you know with absolute certainty? Is risking the engine worth a hundred USD? This is not a component one should be trying to save 1% of their total vehicle maintenance spending. Buy cheaper tires, brake pads, spark plugs, etc. if you want but water cooled means water cooled.
