Knowing SE, they probably didn't even expect people to go and look "how much" it increased the stuff it is said to increase. They're trying to hide that sort of stuff after all.
According to the stat weights at the time, most of the i280 Diadem weapons needed around 100 of "any" useful secondary (Read: Anything not piety or parry) to pull even with the Anima and Yoshida went ahead in an interview to tell people they are just plain worse.

Pretty sure they figured just telling people:"Hey, this new thing not only makes you harder to kill, it also increases your damage, YOUr DAMAGE! The thing you've always been after! Isn't that cool? Hey, are you listening?!"
would suffice.
