What is the point of a 5 minute schedule change?

I have several Jetstar flights booked for next year and almost all of them have had schedule changes of only 5 minutes. Is there a reason they do this? I don't think I've ever had a flight depart and arrive exactly as scheduled so I don't see how 5 minutes makes much of a difference to them.

I don't mind the small schedule change but I did worry for a while if Qantas would issue a new ticket in time as a result of the schedule change.
