Probably because of the limited engines they can use, they have become more carefull, sometimes even too carefull.

like with Max in Spa: turns out there was actualy nothing wrong with the engine, it just turned to safe mode because the software thought
there was, but back in the pitlane they just had to unscrew a spark plug and put the same sparkplug back in an the engine worked again like nothing ever happened.

You don't see engines blow up anymore, they always take a very big safety margin. And that's not what F1 should be: F1 should be about testing the limits.
