Well, for one, if you want to scan a lot (eg. hundreds or thousands) of quests, as you would in an addon whose purpose is to direct you to quests you haven't yet completed, you have to make hundreds or thousands of function calls.
By contast, with QueryQuestsCompleted/GetQuestsCompleted, you have two function calls, and then you have a table containing
every quest you've completed. Hundreds or thousands of table lookups are much faster than the same number of function calls.
