While other command errors might indicate problems with arguments, permissions, or syntax, 'enoent' specifically points to a lack of resources needed to launch the command. It's a fundamental problem with the availability of the command interpreter itself. It's distinct from errors like 'Access Denied' which indicate permission issues.
