You are not serious in suggesting that the EU would've contemplated handing over money for investment in the UK, even though EU funding for UK projects was overwhelming funded by the UK anyway. To begin with, 66% of any EU funding was knocked off the rebate, then add in that we made net contributions, then sometimes nation states had to make their own contributions to projects. Only a small part of EU funding ever came from the EU.
No other reason has been mentioned other than any money they might get. Outside of the EU, we can make an offer, within it we couldn't.
