Perhaps you think it's a lame answer, but I can point you at many previous questions that want to do exactly this.
If the OP had meant to consider these additional parameters where this might make sense, I'd wager they would have been more specific than just asking why you can't do it. But maybe I'm wrong, I'm guessing what they are asking is, like all the other questions, insensible.

That's a lame answer. :-)
My nexus is wifi only and plugged in all day. No carrier or power concerns.
However, I do agree that running a web service on android is probably
the worst idea I've heard in a long time for a multitude of other
(additional) reasons. What's the public IP? How will clients reliably
find it? What's the point?
I'm hoping we are not getting the question correctly.
