Not all contractors are bums on seat commodities. The way you post seems to suggest that this is your experience of contracting. It isn't mine. It is not unknown for a client to want a specific person. When Big Client decides they want someone, usually they get their way.
Back in the late 90s an agency got into a legal argument with a client over my contract. The client's legal department defended it successfully. I didn't suddenly find myself out of work. I did spend an hour (paid!) chatting with one of their legal team about the case - well 10 minutes about the case, and 50 minutes about contracting in general.
