It's more of a preference to use setVariables instead of cfset in some
instances. A lot of programmers who have been doing this for a while think
it's really odd to see a variable on the left side of a cfset so they would
use setvariables if they needed to assign a value using pointers. Just
about the only time there is a real advantage to not using cfset is when you
are assigning three or more variables in a row in which case you should be
using cfscript tags to assign the variables. cfscript runs faster than
multiple cfsets.
