They lack the utility hookups for a toilet - or a shower (or some
other way to clean one's body), which is also generally necessary.
(There are also food concerns - going out to eat or getting delivery
for every meal gets expensive quickly - but a camper van can have a
minifridge and kitchenette installed.  Laundromats exist, but that
entails routinely being able to access such a service, which can be
difficult with no fixed address.)

Many offices lack such amenities, to the point that most workers won't
have access to these at the office and must provide them themselves.
