Because 0.4sec is a huge difference. The same reason that i argued with you about the 5.1 secs to 60 simulation time that you got for the IS-F in comparison to the 4.5 average that the magazines test are getting. Although this is a bigger difference of 0.6, and also in the 1/4 mile, 0.4 is about a car lenght difference. So yes it is a tremendous difference. But realisticly, a regular everyday driver like myself will never see those numbers, so it's useless. But for the die-hard enthusiast and for the automakers themselves, it's a big deal. It's bragging rights and a great sales pitch for a company to say our car is quicker than the competition.
