The distinction there is that the guy driving the Kenworth will (most likely) have a CDL and understands that his truck will accelerate slow, and won't pull out in front of people. Consumer pickups on the other hand are made for the masses, and the acceleration metric is to ensure that the truck can adequately accelerate under load for even the most uninformed driver with little training.
