Oh, I forgot:
5) No more dealing with buggy custom installers. It makes for a decidedly LESS Windows-like environment.
Not every app uses a crappy installer. Some do it the Apple-recommended way - drag and drop.

Maybe drag and drop was too complicated and people just prefer installers? Or maybe it's the Windows users switching to Mac?
Maybe Apple needs to create an InstallShield Wizard to make Windows users feel more at home. ;-/
And what's up with custom installers, when Apple has a standard installer that you can use if you absolutely have to have an installer?
Then again, I wonder whether (or under which cases) uninstalling an App Store app will get rid of its junk in Application Support and Preferences?
