Because Samsung devices require PPS support for their implementation of fast charging.
At the foundational level, PD is based on fixed power profiles of certain combinations of voltage and amperage. PPS, and AVS, in the latest spec, allow for varying those properties as requested by the devices being charged.
PPS and AVS are both optional features within the PD spec, so companies are free to implement, or not implement, support in their products.
If you don't own, or plan to own, a Samsung or other device that utilizes it, no big deal. They will still work with basic PD, but simply won't charge as quickly.
Also not mentioned, but worth noting, is that for now Adjustable Voltage Supply (AVS) is primarily associated with the newest Apple devices.
Good luck!

I must also correct myself -- did not realize that under PD 3.2, AVS is mandatory, while PPS remains optional.
So over time, I suspect a lot more than Apple users will be able to utilize it. And it might also serve to quiet the "no PPS" chants.
But on the whole, solid, standards-compliant chargers at a reasonable price like these appear to be, and the IKEA units are good for users.
They may not be cutting edge, have fancy screens (or cost a gazillion dollars), but for most people who will never know the difference, they'll serve well.
PPS = Programmable Power Supply
PD = Power Delivery (e.g., USB-PD 3.0)
AVS = Adaptive Voltage Supply (sometimes called Adaptive Voltage Scaling)

My Samsung Galaxy S device says "Super Fast Charging 2.0" when using this device, so, you're wrong.
Good luck!
