Because original is incorrect. For the first increase 0.5% to 1.5% is an increase of 200% while the increase in percentage points is 1. The reason it’s important is that it can skew the readability of the statistics to a degree where the numbers at best are confusing and at worst are misleading. In your case you accidentally understated the significance of the increase.
