Technical correctness and commercial persuasion are independent variables — improving one doesn't automatically improve the other.
Technical correctness has no bearing on whether the actual words on the page communicate a compelling reason to become a customer — these are entirely separate dimensions of quality.
No automated technical scan checks whether reviews are visible, whether credentials are specific, or whether pricing transparency reduces hesitation — these are commercial, judgement-based factors outside what a technical audit measures.
A site can load in under a second, pass every accessibility check, and have zero broken links — and still lose visitors because the homepage headline is a vague slogan that doesn't say what the business actually does.
A technical audit and a commercial/conversion audit answer different questions, and a business relying only on the former can be confidently unaware of exactly why visitors aren't converting.
