Why the rule of "don't gank the losing lane"?
Because then that lane loses, and you're left having to fight a 4v5 ( or 3v5 if it was bot lane) while that lane tries to piece together their missing farm/levels.
How is a 4v5 better than a one-level-difference 5v5?

In all seriousness, it's risk/reward assessment. Sometimes, there is literally nothing you can do to save a lane. So, help the lanes that can benefit.
