Begs the question....Why bother with nCleaner at all if CCleaner found more stuff after using nCleaner?

Because we didn't try the reverse experiment. After a few days our computer should build up enough gunk to try running CCleaner and then follow up with an nCleaner run to see if it catches things CCleaner misses.
