A good reason not to use wood for didges is that around 20 million of them are made each year, currently from wood, and that level of harvest is unsustainable. While wood is a wonderful and often sustainable material, there are similar reasons for many other situations where wood - especially tropical hardwoods is currently used.
There are also cases where wood isn't a good match - e.g. where you want thin sheets with 3 axis of curvature, and many of the favored materials for those situations aren't exactly sustainable either (VOC's, toxics etc etc).
