Default Suited Connector Theory

Why is the theory of playing suited connectors such a big topic, why are they so great a starting hand???

also,

why is it that if i win a hand with suited connectors people say good hand, but if i win a hand with suited 1-2 gappers, i am frowned upon, 9-10 diamonds is a good hand, why isnt say 9-J diamonds or 8-10 diamonds? dont they have the same straight possiblities?could someone shed some light on this subject for me please?

Basically i am asking the question

What is the difference in strength between suited connectors and suited 1-2 gappers?
