      Because while he still had the blueprints for the droid, his engineers didn't remember the fine-tuning they had done to turn those blueprints into an actual droid, and enough time and money had already been sunk into the project. Either that or plot convenience.

    The Galactic Republic’s was a massive spanning government that had several different fighting forces within its armed forces. The Clone Wars were fought by normal citizens, clones, and droids, but since the Confederacy of Independent Systems used so many battle droids they are often remembered as the only government that used battle droids in the Clone Wars. The Galactic Republic’s used droids to shore up the defenses against their enemies, but they weren’t as reliable enough compared to organic troopers. Though using battle droids alongside several organic troopers is still a affective tactic during the Clone Wars.

    Honestly, I get it was part of palpatine's greater scheme that the clone army be created to take care of the jedi but using droids that are combat ready right off the essembly line seems alot more logistically sound especially since clones had to be raised, fed and trained for 10 years on the government's doll and were actually way more expensive individually than even very high end battle droids like the bx commando droids.
    Also there's no reason you couldn't have droids pull off order 66 or straight up grapple with their jedi commander before self destructing like a suicide bomber if needed. I've always found it weird that the republic transitioning into the empire actually phased out automation instead of leverage it more.
    Capital ships of the imperial navy were deliberately designed to require more and more manpower with the likes of manual gunners that don't even have shit like fire control systems like we have in our rl world to the point where imperial star destroyers had to be ditched by imperial remnants after the battle of scariff for lighter ships like moff Gideon's light crusier cause larger vessels became impossible to fully man or resupply.

I mean I know that clones and their chips were essential to Sidious plans for order 66 and all, but droids could have well served the same pourpose. Also, as Republic was in a dire sytuation for most of the war, it would make sense that some senators would decide to support the GAR with such a force.
