Counterpoint: it's not

I absolutely hate using diff view except when I'm debugging. Reading (or even skimming) 2 text files at once demands a lot of concentration. Now following activity in visual displays like these also takes concentration, and the process can certainly be refined further, but they can help you get a quick overview of what's going on in the same way as a profiling graph.
