It's because it's commonly thought that the lack of a higher meaning is negative when that's just a matter of opinion. We already went over this.
At the same time it also says that not all pessimists are nihilists. If you want to truly revel in pessimism you'd believe that we were all created to suffer. Actually, I think Frown already said that.
