The main disadvantage is spatial resolution. EEG does not have it. Each electrode registers only the mean value - the vector sum of the charges from millions or billions of neurons (blurred from behind the skull). Imagine that the brain is a baseball stadium, its neurons are people in a crowd, and the information we want to get will instead of the electrical activity of the derivative of the vocal cords. In this case, the EEG will be a group of microphones outside the stadium, behind its outer walls.
