Maybe because the neutrinos they are looking for aren't in space. Neutrinos have to be 4,000 feet below the surface to be deciphered between a neutrino and a cosmic ray. Once below 4,000 feet they slow down enough to be detected more accurately. (This information was given to us in a tour by staff at the Homestake Mine in Lead, SD.)

Why doesnt the surface of a radio telescope have to be as flawless as the surface of a mirror in an optical telescope?

The surface of a radio telescope doesn't have to be as flawless as the surface of an optical telescope because the radio telescope is collecting radio waves, something that will not be affected by faults in the glass. Optical telescopes, on the other hand, are collecting light, where faults in the surface can interfere with the image.
