Maybe because you can reverse heparin with protamine but youd have to do a platelet infusion to reverse aspirin which can take much longer to procure than just dialing up a bolus of protamine.
This has strong clinical importance in real life where youd want to prevent clotting intraprocedurally and then reverse it immediately to prevent hemmorhaging and hematomas.
