Because, unless they take a majority share, they want to know who it is
they're dealing with... i.e. who is controlling the company
One of the most important things an investor looks at is THE PEOPLE who are
controlling the company, and in your scheme, it is not clear who that is...
Yes, you can say "I control the company even though I don't have a
controlling set of shares", but investors are not likely to trust, this,
because they view financial ownership as the essence of motivation [since
that is what motivates them, by and large]

The only thing that is odd about the compensation scheme is how you're
determining the allocation of the non-VC/investor shares/profits.
Why would that bother the VC or angel investor?
Why would they even care about how the remaining shares are divvied
up?
