For me anyway, it's the same reason I like Lisp more than other languages.
Pairing with a client the other day, she remarked that she had a hard time following what I was doing. This is because when I write Lisp I usually don't go into it with a plan, because I don't know what I'm going to write yet. So I just keep writing "the next thing," and at the end, presto, a working program!
Org-mode is like that in its relationship w/notebooks. If you know what you're writing, a notebook probably is better, b/c it's easy to carry, doesn't run out of battery, has no load time, etc.
But if (like me) your notebooks have a lot of things half-started, scratched out, and replaced, well, then, org-mode may be for you!
