Ok, I'll bite, why? what's the difference?

BTW, for those considering "Run Time", don't forget the second and
third power outage. Especially here in New England.

Example:
You've got 15 mins run time. Power fails and comes back in 5 mins. You
now have (as example) three hours of charge time before 100% (15min)
is achieved. Ten minutes later, another power outage for 5 mins.
You're now down to 5 mins of available uptime and you're waiting for
five (or so) solid hours of recharge before you're back into the "save
zone".

Thanks to everyone for their valuable knowledge.
