That's exactly my point. It allows you to quickly add js validation in addition to server side validation without getting bogged down in the details. Which for a high traffic site could make a significant differene. Consider the scenario where a person submits a form with a few required fields missing, fills in one or two but misses the rest submits the form again ...this guy despite your error message still misses another required field...gets an error message submits the form again...you get the picture.
