Mainly because there are some decent 29ers rims that's reasonably light, if not lighter than most, like says the NoTube Crest weighting a modest 380g, the biggest difference I find is the width, and wider is generally regard as better (better tyres shape, less pressure, etc.).
The 29ers topic on here would be a good place to start.
