Why would I not just buy 100% CASV

I am 26 with the ability to invest approximately $6000 per month. Since I was 21 I have maintained a SCV tilt of 30% using AVUV (US only, I know) but have sold this for CASV mostly for its global diversification. However, why would I not just run 100% CASV? The reason I was doing 30% AVUV before is arbitrary (and that I could not be bothered perform norbert's gambit all that often), my job pays well, I do not need investments to cover expenses. Why not just get the SCV premium going forward in all of the portfolio?

Tracking error is not a concern for me, and I mean this when I say it: I truly do not care in the slightest what the "broad market" is doing, even outperforming for years, if my expected return is good. I don't even check the balance of my accounts more than once every 4 or 5 months, I just shove more money in. I don't have any grasp of what is happening in the market as a whole at any time, nor do I really care. If my AVUV had underperformed for the last 6 years I would not care, mainly because I literally do not even know if it has.

Why would I not just capture the premiums afforded by a SCV tilt forever? It seems to me like a pretty zero-effort but effective solution, allowing me to focus more on income and other aspects of live. CAGE is fine and all, but is less SCV tilted
