The reward is actually better. The Smooth and Silky stones can be traded for a variety of useful items such as various Titanites, elemental stones for imbuing weapons and a few rare weapons. By contrast,  once you've maxed your Heirs of the Sun rank by getting 30 Sunlight Medals, there's absolutely no need for any more. If you're not in HotS, you get a Token of Fidelity which is next to worthless unless you're in the Sentinels. It's an odd design choice but for the majority of players, the regular soapstone's rewards are completely useless.
