To name a few advantages, you can associate credential stores and Pipeline 
shared libraries with folders so that they are visible . Through the Role 
Strategy plugin, you can also assign various privileges--and not simply 
read privileges--to jobs inside different folders.

I don't think you can do any of those things views.

Note: these advantages have nothing to do with how deeply the folders are 
nested.
