Por not para?

Devin P.C1Kwiziq Q&A regular contributor

In some of these sentences it seems that para would work just as well, for example, in the following: Por [eso/aquello de] no tener que pelar las gambas con las manos decidió pedir mejor calamares fritos.

So that he wouldn't have to peel the prawns with his hands he decided to order fried calamari.
Why can’t I use para?
