Because Siddhis is not talked about much, some do not except nor understand what is 'happening' to them. For example, if a person finds them self Bi-located to a distant land and they relate their experience to a person who has never experience Bi-location, you can just imagine what the other person would give them as advice.

Bi-location is mentioned in a Siddhi called Vayu Gaman Siddhi. It appears people of all faiths/religions have experienced this phenomena.

Something to note is all the Buddhas have experienced the various Siddhis but not all Buddhist believe in Siddhis.
