If the fantasy of vtubing is to become an animated character, then you want to be able to move like one, too.
Fluid and expressive animation, as well as accurate tracking, are key elements of this goal.
If you aren't used to this environment, say by mostly watching corpos whose standard for rigs is generally lower, you might not realize how much of a difference it makes.
Take this classic .gif from Shylily. None of this animation was pre-made, it's all done with tracking.
It adds so much personality to a model when you can do things like this.
