In casino chemin de fer, you can stay on your stiffs if you want to, but the croupier cannot.
The dealer has no decision to make, but you do and this is your edge. The rules of gambling on blackjack require that dealers hit stiffs no matter how loaded the deck is in high cards that will break them.
The high cards favor the player because they may break the casino when he hits her stiffs and also because both tens and Aces mean blackjacks.
Although blackjacks are, evenly allocated between the dealer and the gambler, the fact is that the gambler gets paid more (3:2) when she gets a blackjack so the gambler has an edge.
You don't have to tally the data of each of the individual card in order to know when you have an advantage over the dealer.
You only need to know at what point the shoe is loaded or poor in high cards and you can increase your action when the edge is in your favour.
This is a basic commentary of how card-counting schemes work, but gives you an insight into why the rationale works.
