If the meaning is carried adequately by two separate words, there is certainly no reason to make a compound out of them. It is easier for the reader that way, at the trivial expense of asking the writer not to be lazy.

Using a single-word compound might sometimes imply something that isn’t clear in a straightforward noun-noun construction, but the writer had better be pretty darn sure of his or her motivation when doing it.
