Because the belt can never go faster than the wheels, they are free spinning so they match the speed of the belt 1 for 1. Hence why when you add in thrust the belt is always behind because everything it does to speed up to match the thrust is just instantly offset by a corresponding wheel acceleration.
The belts speed is a dependent variable with the speed of the wheel, but the wheel has an independent source of forward acceleration.
