If you're a congressperson and know nothing about mortgages, then all you know is "2008, never again, 2008, never again," and if you questioned an executive at one of these stupidly slow lenders they would say "oh we're just doing our due diligence, no one wants 2008 all over again, after all, don't you know," and this would line up with your preconceived biases/notions, so you as a congressperson wouldn't question it (you would accept it as "due diligence" rather than accepting the truth of it being "horrible customer service"), and wouldn't feel the need to introduce any new legislation.
