Why use carburetors on airplanes, if fuel injection has been around since WW2?

It seems a Very Bad Idea (TM) to use a carburetor with a float bowl on a vehicle that could be a multitude of orientations rather than always flat and level like a car, with various potential +/-G forces acting on it.... :-/
