One thing it might do is avoid security updates. If there is a
vulnerability in a module not on your server, you can discount the
problem without even looking at it and avoid having to upgrade.

Modules probably aren't going to be a panacea without technical issues
[1]. You can easily write a classpath on a command line. For modules
we have pretty, simplified powerpoint graphs. The graphs contain much
more information and different sorts of relationships, but look easy
because you haven't been shown the text representation.
