That's not the point though. Made in Heaven isn't precise enough to dodge an attack at close range. It moves faster than Pucci can actually keep up with, so it has to make wide, sweeping attacks. If it got into close range, it was at risk of being hit, which is why Pucci was rushing in and out so quickly.

Think of it kind if like Silver Chariot and Hanged Man. Hanged Man is faster, without a doubt, but Silver Chariot was precise enough to intercept its movement path and hit it. That's basically what Jotaro was trying to do against Made in Heaven, only Star Platinum couldn't get the timing right on its own, so it needed Anasui's help. Diavolo, however, would know exactly where Pucci will be because of Epitaph, so hitting him is a lot easier.
