I know that feeling too well, especially since iipeikou is my most satisfying yaku.

It's kinda like when you have this gigantic baiman or sanbaiman, then you realize you can turn your hand into a specific yakuman with a bit more effort, but that would kill every other yaku so it would feel like shit even though you're getting more.

Maybe it's based on the available tiles? Hon-Itsu is one suit with which means 36 tiles, Yakuhai has 12 Dragon tiles + 8 possible wind tiles, a total of 56 tiles.

While Ryanpeikou is limited by the menzen and sequence-requirement, it can be built with all three sets, so you have a total 108 tiles to use.

There are more available tiles, but you also need to be way more specific with your available tiles. Once you've got two sequences in two suits, you've then effectively got to fulfill six separate waits to complete your ryanpeikou, of which each wait has a maximum of 3 tiles remaining, so at most six groups of 3, or 18 tiles, and if all three of any of those groups are drawn by other players or in the dead wall, your ryanpeikou is impossible to complete.
