You've just finished tasering the subject for a full 5-second cycle. The taser shock is about 2000 times more painful than 'intolerable' pain, and - by most accounts - the most painful thing in the world. While they were writhing in pain on the ground, the only sound was the snap-snap-snap of the taser. Sure showed them, eh?
So now what?
What do you do after the 5-second cycle has completed?
What comes next?
You sort-of forgot to get in there and put on the handcuffs during that first 5-second cycle. And it's difficult to do that while holding the taser in your hand anyway - which makes the whole design concept of 'incapacitation' less than useful for a single 5-second deployment. What's the point of incapacitation if you're just going to stand there and enjoy the show? What was the purpose of the taser shock again? It's a bit unclear...
So, repeating the question: What comes next?
Only obvious answer: Another 5-second cycle in many cases.
And this even in the absence of any ill-will towards the victim/subject.
