Make money (by selling Materia V)
Get an easily attainable i235 weapon for numerous jobs depending on how much you want to grind
Forego expert roulettes and cap lore with a few full 1-50 runs while making money/getting a weapon
Solo friendly for many jobs
Get to try out new and sometimes wonky party compositions

All in all, I think it is great and would love to know why you dislike it so much.
They also let you unlock the quest skills as you go so you don't feel "gimp" and can try out the abilities before you get them in the outside world. ^^
