Because what's the alternative? Every pill looking identical? That's a recipe for disaster.

Also, often a doctor, nurse or pharmacist can tell what the pill is just by looking at it and that's potentially life-saving information.

Texture could be useful to those with limited vision or perhaps it's just the way that particular drug is. For example, if you want the pill to dissolve in water, you don't put that smooth sugary coating on it.
