Explain to me why I should buy this over a Fiesta ST with more power and likely better handling, all for $5k less?

No. Speed is a function of engine and gearing. Cruise control will vary the throttle to account for inclines and declines, so you’ll hear variations with engine effort. But maintaining the same speed, in the same (high) gear, means the same engine RPM.
