Mostly because it comes off as an actual simulation of the situation that was at 1939 to 1945.
If there was a nuclear power station simulator that only had one text screen of a bunch of numbers that represented the actual predicted happening of the internal states within that unit, versus a game where you only had two graphical bars that represented demand and the other, power output... In the former, you had to controll all known aspects to make success. Whereas in the latter, you just had to make sure you didn't over push the reactor output. The former states "you are dead" if it blows and the latter shows a grand super mushroom cloud going off with a city burning and people screaming as they run down the street... Which would you play. And your answer will probably say a lot about you.
