Multi women are too scared to risk injuring pole vaulting. Heard this myself nearly 10 years ago from a now 5800 point heptathlete. The longest pole they're willing to ride is mine.

Both Heptathlon and Decathlon outdoors?! Uh, no. At least not at championship meets, which already take too long. Too much overlap. Using this logic, why not still run the women's 3000 outdoors also, because some athletes are more suited to that distance than 5000?
Why don't men do the heptathlon? Looking at this from the different levels considered in this thread that is just as fair of a question.

why don't men run 100m hurdles set at 2.75 feet? or 400m hurdles at 2 1/2 feet. or 30" steeple barriers?
Oh no he didn't.
