It's a meme. J-E dictionary is fast so it doesn't interrupt your reading like a J-J dictionary does, and even if the definition isn't as accurate, that doesn't matter since so long as the J-E definition gives you the gist of what the word means you can fill in the blanks with context.

You're never going to learn what words mean just by reading definitions of them in a dictionary anyway; whether the dictionary is J-E or J-J makes no difference. The only way to learn words is through lots of reading and listening and coming across them in a variety of different contexts.
