While there is some truth to this, the main reason is for the aesthetic look of the guage needle. Who wants to look at guages that sit there and bounce around every half second? It gets annoying after a while.

...certain cars dont have them, the nsx's oil gauge is sensitive enough you can see a drop when the vtec system switches cam profiles. scc also made a big stink about the srt4 having "real gauges"
The NSX guages are still buffered, just not as long as say a Buick.
