Why don't they make contacts in a lower CYL?

So first is my glasses scrip
SPH CYL AXIS
OD +.5 -.75 130
OS +.25 -.5 037

And my contacts
BC SPH CYL AXIS DIA
8.7 +0.50 -0.75. 130. 14.5. O. D.
8.7. +0.25. -0.75. 040. 14.5. O. S.

So, my vision isn't bad at all and my contact and glasses prescription is nearly identical, except for the CYL on 1 eye. This is because they don't make contacts below a -0.75. Why is that?

They have no problem making 1 eye of my lenses in my glasses a -0.5 CYL. Why can't they make a contact the same? Just curious.

*i asked this question already yesterday, but I am not sure that I explained myself well. Thanks.
