20 gold is about 1 minion or half a big jungle camp... Also you are denying them the possibility to help your lane by ganking. Even if gank doesn't result to a kill your lane partner can at least push the lane, you might even get some damage through and relieve significant pressure by doing so. You're also not only denying jungler gold from gank but xp as well... And even though the ward can be easily cleared and you can then camp the lane it still gives away your position. Cleared ward on top? Bot lane can now play knowing there is no jungle pressure for quite a while and even mid can be at ease for at least next 30 seconds...
