I think those are two different products.
Google Flights is for the masses, ITA's Matrix is for the nerds who populate FT (and I'm one of them, so don't take the term as a derogatory one, rather one to describe "a single-minded expert in a particular technical field"). And Google Flights is a far faster engine for simple roundtrips.
