With more resolution you are getting those extra pulses in between to help trigger timing events without a complex calculation that would take more time to calculate than the event window is long.

Thats my take on it anyway
what's to say you don't swap the trigger wheel? I guess I should have said coil per cylinder V6/0411 too, because that's what I'd be more interested in.
