Pasta is just flour that has been moistened. It is while you are putting the broth or sauce on top of the pasta that the flavored and herbed water of the sauce/broth is introduced into your pasta. As a result, your sauce will literally become a part of the pasta itself, and the longer it sits there, the more it will soak in.
A pasta dish is simply a hydrating mixture of wheat and liquid. Once the broth or sauce is ladled onto the pasta, the flavorful and herbed water from the sauce/broth seeps into the pasta. So your sauce truly becomes a part of the pasta itself, and the longer it sits there, the more of it it will incorporate.
