Enterprise-D’s holodecks were bleeding-edge experimental technology. For example, check out that first episode where they introduce them; the crew had never seen them before! Also, the Bynars upgraded them pretty quick.
In contrast, DS9’s holosuites a few years later were established technology for commercial use. They were reliable because they were designed for paying customers who wouldn’t tolerate shit turning real and hunting them or whatever.
