And if I happen to have two unrelated changes in a single file that's worth nothing at all. For example, I might have changed the condition that causes some message to be shown, and discovered a typo in the message itself and fixed it along the way. That needs two commits, but the list of modified files doesn't tell that. Only "commit -v" would help there, showing the diff in the editor. But reviewing the diff in the editor is a PITA and I lose the whole review progress if I find something I don't want to commit and have to abort. Using "git add [-i|-p|-e]", git helps me to keep track of the changes I already reviewed and decided to commit.
