    It could be down to tooling cost.
    A 17mm drill, and a 23mm counterbore are pretty standard tools, so are relatively cheap.
    Whereas a custom tool to do the job in one pass is not a standard tool, and will be relatively expensive.

    Would the amount of time saved by using one expensive custom tool, outweigh the extra time using two cheap standard tools?
