I certainly am not the most qualified person to attempt to answer this but....
1) believe you can obtain better and more consistent accuracy. I think the folks that shoot at the big muzzle loading shoots using full bore bullets could speak that better than I.
2) barrel heating is not the factor that it is with sabots.
3) It does eliminate the need to use sabots - might less the expense of cost per load.
Just a few thoughts off the top of head...
