Most psykers using staves will be using talents that scale on peril, like Warp Rider and One With The Warp, and the Warp Nexus bless is one of the most powerful crit blesses a staff can have, and it also scales with Peril Having high Warp Resistance makes it harder to explode while at high peril, while lower Quelling Speed makes it easier to avoid over-quelling and reducing the benefits of your scale-on-peril talents.
Unlike Force Swords and Force Greatswords, which only generate peril on their special actions and thus don't present much risk of explosion, staves generate peril with literally everything they do. Having a shallow peril generation curve makes the weapon more controllable than having one that spikes with every action and immediately spikes back down with quelling.
For example:
If you have a melee weapon that's great at killing single enemies (like bosses), then stats that help with fighting big groups (like cleave) might be considered dump stats — because they don’t help much with what the weapon is best at.
