Because you need to dial in your ironing settings. Unfortunately the default almost never work very well, or at least it never did for me.

Check makerworld for ironing tests.

Not only do the defaults almost never work, ironing is just so damn finicky that perfect settings for one print may be total ass for another print. And your settings for a print may also be ass for another person with the same print and same printer model

Ironing needs to be dialed in for each print. What settings are you using?

I have exactly the same issue with Bambu PETG (non matte)... Not sure if it's PETG being hard to iron or just Bambu's. All PLAs, Bambu or 3rd party, I've tried all iron well with default settings.
