FBA to simulate bacteria growth on different growth medium

FBA (flux balance analysis) is frequently used to simulate bacteria growth on different media (different growth medium). I wonder why just the information about presence of enzyme that metabolizes given substrat is not sufficient to assess if this substrat can be component of bacteria growth medium? Why we use FBA in this case?
