One of the biggest problems it seems now is the reluctance to risk hugely expensive aircraft in CAS, so having a multi-role fighter may mean having an aircraft that can not fight as well against other fighters, and not deployed in the ground attack role due to risk to the airframe.
If you are going to spend huge coin on a uber-fighter, than also purchase a cheaper decent aircraft optimized for CAS. The loss of one or two uber-fighter will likely be the same as the difference in running two different airframes.
