They can’t eliminate the $1 for the same reason they can’t eliminate the 1¢: Too much pressure from business and vending machine industries.
Additionally, the government won’t make $1 coins in the proper size (the size of silver dollars) so they get confusing (especially Susan B. which looks too much like a quarter).
Machines can tell the difference.
