Because to sew them, you would first of all track them down, and then have a large enough needle and enmough thread to do the trick. It would also probably be rather messy, as human beings have a tendency to bleed when needles are pushed through their flesh. Not that it's necessarily a bad idea...

As for the idea of suing them, I don't believe they've ever done anything they didn't promise to do. Your work is publsihed in an anthology -- if you pay. And suing them on the basis that they promise all the works would be outstandish runs into the tricky defence of artistic merit.
