MT32-Pi Why?

I don’t understand why a discrete mt32-pi hardware is needed for the MiSTer project; why can’t they just implement the Roland Mt-32 logic in the FPGA fabric for the applicable cores such as AO486 implements SoundBlaster in soft core? Why is a separate raspberry pi and dedicated hardware required for a little midi plugin?
