Granted, these botnets are very distributed, but the use of an IP rather than domain makes it easier for an ISP to confirm a system is affected and take action against it. Contrast that with an abuse report for a domain - which, with fast-flux, may not be pointing to an IP within that ISP's netblock by the time they get around to researching the issue.
