The reason this matters is that your cover letter doesn't come across as personal and individual. The purpose of it is to catch the attention of the recruiter and let them see something of your personality and motivation. If it is too streamlined, it doesn't stand out from the crowd.

Think about what makes you tick, why you want this job and why you are a good fit with the company's values and mission. (It's a made-up company - so you can make something up)

Try to make it a personal letter that tells something of your story. Do you have any additional experience or education that you can mention here?
