You pay a lot for a little bit of additional capability. Usually that little bit of capability isn't used. Nearly double the troop capacity (11 vs 21) and 2 1/2 times the endurance is "a little bit of additional capability?"

No matter how big the helicopter, it generally fly back empty.
Because of that, the advantage of large payload is somewhat diminished.
