While I suppose that it is not impossible for you to set it up such that the rogue is able to sneak attack every round, it may not be feasible for him to stand toe to toe with the enemy in order to benefit from this. since he would generally lack the tanking capabilities/staying power of a well-built defender.
This means that while you certainly could stick around to SA every round, it might be more prudent to deal damage in bursts - spring forward, strike for a lot of damage, then retreat to safety before the enemy has a chance to retaliate.
Perhaps this is what the designers intended - a conscientious tradeoff between your hp and that of the foe's.
