I think that the only clear advantage of using JSPs is the possibility for
HTML writer with very little knowledge in Java or any other programming
stuff to create data-driven Web pages.
On the other hand there is a huge disadvantage - one has to expose as many
data beans as that writer is supposed to be aware of. That means a lot of
them. In result JSP application gets extremely vulnerable to any
modifications. Should the specification the data bean change it will require
rewriting all JSPs using that bean.
Using servlet based model it is possible to handle the requests only by
single servlet dispatching those requests to the currently active form. In
other words all data beans are hidden behind that servlet.
