Because you can not pp 485. So pp or not, you get the result for 485 at similar time given the processing time for 140 is short now. Only that you know 140 result sooner if you pp 140.

难道140和485是并行处理的?

This case perhaps is what happymichael meant: http://www.mitbbs.com/article_t/Immigration/32152983.html There are people who have done 140+pp+485, especially when you are very confident. Nowadays 140 seems to take 4-6 months, and with 140+485, you may get your green card in about 6 months. People do 140+pp without 485, because the 485 fee will be wasted if 140 is ever rejected. Then with pp, and if 140 is approved, 485 can be filed quickly as well (for instance, only 15 days later than 140+pp+485).
Some people are eager to know the results, since once 140 is approved, the chance that 485 will be declined is very low. Generally these people will not file 485 concurrently with 140. They will wait for the result of 140 and then submit 485 if 140 is approved (in around 2 weeks), so they will not pay too much. However, these people pay more than 485+non-pp 140 even their cases are declined. But they know results sooner.
