I think that this is a big part of the Class G problem. Many IAPs are not protected from itinerant IFR traffic and it becomes quite unwieldy to provide the draconian 'don't anyone come near me, not even VFR' Deconfliction Service. But why the VFRs get pushed about I do not understand, traffic info should suffice...maybe TCAS RAs are the cause of that...
