I can only speak for myself, but I got an electric toothbrush in order to clean my mouth better.
I mean ok but no... https://www.dentalhealth.org/electric-vs-manual-toothbrushes-plaque-and-gingivitis-control
I think there are eight studies listed there that disagree with you.
I can't speak to all the studies on there because I didn't read them all, but I'm pretty sure they compared 2 mins with the electric brush to 2 min with manual.
Because it's literally true. Better outcomes means better ability to clean. That's how it works.
Manual toothbrushes obviously can get the job done, but electric does it better
