Because we expect you to capture the SVT yourself :p

A decent answer, but there's a problem with that. There's a difference between scavenging for weapons mid-battle to improvise, and capturing a weapon and using it as your own. My understanding is that the latter happened far more often. A lucky German would find an SVT, see its obvious advantages over his Kar98, and keep it. He would clean it and maintain it and use it as his own service rifle, not as a quick fix which he would dump at the end of the battle. The Germans even gave the SVT their own name and issued an operating manual for it.
