Because some routers and ISPs have default passphrases or known passphrase limits. It narrows down the hunt and enables faster hacking. Not all hacking is pressing a button and waiting.

Or to be more exact
About Injection frames
In a perfect world there will be programmers and devs that write drivers for every kind of wireless adapters out there, but that's seldom the case, nor do they develop drivers that supports injection frames, and that's what we need for hacking. Why is injection such a big deal? It's because we're telling the wireless card to preform something it's not made to do.. To lie, to forge, to steal, just to tell something about what injection might do. As I said it's not all wireless cards that hardware nor software support this... Sadly
Also depending on router and firmware, it can be vulnerable against some kind of attacks

No. Just read it. It's pretty much everything you need to know.

Sorry for the argument ...but its not what I want to know.....

Sorry for me beeing an arse, but what exactly do you want to know? You can't be more clear. You want to know things like flags etc, indepth RE drivers and such? In that case I promise that you won't find your anwsers here

I helps the cracker narrow down his wordlists. Information gathering is the first thing any hacker learns. It's common knowledge that many ATT customer routers have passwords that are 10 digit numerical. Other routers have a wpa password derived from their mac address, serial number, or a combination of the two.
That is why they want to know.
