You have been lucky or never made a more complicated maneuver on them. Regular JWs become hard at low temps, and the traction becomes limited. My brother once tried to make a U-turn on a cold, wet, and slick surface, which resulted in a collapse so violent his Garmin sent a distress signal to his son! As my brother was at those times actively commuting, he swapped the regular JWs for JW365, and rode on the latter for three cold seasons (when there was no ice). He also thinks JW365 would wear fast during the warm season.
It all depends on the weather type in a given area and is very similar to the choice of winter car tyres or riding on multiseason ones. For instance, a sane Polish driver would use winter tyres while multiseason ones are a popular choice for Denmark.
I can only re-iterate JWs are the warm season tyres while JW365 are recommended for cold weather.

@DTCsjoerd: I assume you have not ridden your Cube on the stock Smart Sams yet? As you have already decided to make the swap, all I can say is store the Smart Sams in good conditions. You might later discover how badly you need them
