Its due to the reduced screen and obstacle clearance heights (15ft rather than 35ft) used for wet runway calculations. You are not allowed to use the extra weight which is why you need to check the dry RTOW as well and use that if its less than the wet figure.

Plenty of threads in the past with more detail if you do a quick search.
