Valid question. I think it's just a usability thing. Easier to hit an icon on my phone to open an app rather than launch the browser, find bookmark, etc. It may seem trivial, but it makes a difference when you're in a hurry.

Don't know how you do it in Android, but in iOS you can tap share and then add to home screen to, well, add a website to your home screen.

Android also supports this.

In Chrome, Firefox and close relatives thereof, it's Menu -> Add to Home Screen.

Yeah, I just need to do that. Thanks for the reminder.
