Distribution vs Accumulation funds question


I’ve seen the overwhelming majority of people say that an accumulation fund is better for growth than a distribution fund as the dividends are reinvested automatically in an accumulation fund but I am curious about one thing.

How is this the case when VUSA (distribution) and VUAG (accumulation) are around the same price and growth? I’m not relatively smart with stocks as I am just a passive vanguard etf investor so I might be missing something but would stock growth plus receiving your own dividend to re invest not be more beneficial as you’ll end up with more shares?

I am absolutely happy to be wrong on this point which I probably am I just want to understand better how it works thanks!
