I never said they are as important. However, they are still grades. When colleges are trying to make distinctions between students based off of the slightest hints in an application, low freshman grades provide a potential warning that can make a significant difference between acceptance or being denied.

Do you really think counseling that fix transition periods from getting Cs to As/some Bs? This spends college resources and it is simply a problem that colleges would rather not deal with.

I’m not arguing with you; I really don’t care whether you agree with me or not. I’m just making sure OP knows both sides of the argument.
