Because the null hypothesis is that your data _comes from_ a certain distribution. What you can check is whether or not your data _fits_ that distribution, which is not the same
Flipping a coin 10000 times and getting 4980 heads is not evidence that the coin is exactly 50/50. It's only evidence that the coin is not REALLY biased

NOTHING can be proven.
We either reject the null hypothesis, or fail to reject the null hypothesis. Those are the only options.
