Because sure, you can see stuff coming, but your reaction time is going to be shit because you don't have an accurate gauge for how fast things are actually moving. Actually, quite the contrary, your reaction time will be godlike. Because normally things can be so fast that a reaction can be "delayed", one may not even react to it at all until it's too late. Like being shot. Good luck noticing the bullet and reacting to it before it hits you.

By slowing time perception, you can see things at a much slower pace, thus notice them much sooner and become capable of reacting to them without any problem. Like being shot, but you can see the bullet coming thus you can at the least throw yourself somewhere, being more likely to avoid it.

Even if you don't actually slow time itself, you can at least get a much superior reaction time and reflexes that way.

PS: I agree with you on it's name. It's not even fitting.
