Wider aperture means bigger lens, especially zoom. This can be a negative for the non-professional who wants to minimize size/weight when travelling or just walking around town, especially if they already have a smaller, mirrorless body. Professionals, obviously, will use whatever size equipment they need to get the job done.

Photography is the art of manipulating light, be that via off-camera flash, better lenses or picking the right time of day. Getting a fancier camera body only lets you pick up the electrons that are already there, you'll see much larger improvements in your photo quality if you focus on the other things first.
