Ever see Hunt for Red October? You just never know which guy is Internal Affairs.
Plus, even in-house couriers can defect; and these jokers may have had years of scanning documents to sell-out, while a runner you occasionally hire probably doesn't know crap all to sell.

In-house couriers are most likely outfitted cortex bombs as a 'security measure' to prevent them from capture or to protect corporate investments if the courier was ever compromized.

Nor does it help you do stuff without letting your corp assets division know you're doing it.
Going postal..
