Answer:
If the pupae are allowed to chew their way out of the cocoons, the silk is reduced to short lengths of little use to humans. Trying to unwrap the silk from a living pupa that hadn't completed the pupal stage would also likely kill it. Boiling water kills the pupae quickly, while making the silk easier to unwind
