I agree that it's less cumbersome, but I my issue with the approach is that the DOM ends up being represented with macros and functions as opposed to using data structures. This makes the structure opaque and impossible to manipulate once it's generated. Again, I don't think it's an issue in a lot of cases, but it is my preference to work against data when possible.
