Because people within the unit would soon figure that out and they'd risk a whistle blower scenario.
If Osama wasn't killed, they wouldn't have said it was SEAL Team 6 if nobody in that unit could be trusted to keep quiet. They would have used intelligence assets ... the professional liars who would have no issue keeping quiet because they've probably been part of far bigger lies. Nobody would have questioned it if the CIA did it because they were after him for years, everybody knows they run ops and were looking for him, etc.
If SEAL Team 6 is staffed with people that would perpetrate a lie like that then they wouldn't have had to stage an accident to off them.
The likely thing is Osama was recently killed and nobody had found him for years because everybody thought he was hiding (and looking in hiding spots), but Pakistan was aiding him all along. The helicopter crash is just bad timing on the heels of Osama capture.
