Unless you get them perfectly, they are easy to defend and few people tap to knee / ankle damage these days. Leg locks also leave you open for counter leg locks, hence the “race to see who can lock it on first” we used to see all the time. Plus, if the opponent defends and gets free, you are on your back. You take a huge chance in either getting subbed yourself, or giving up position.
