map would result in a Box[Box[Long]]

One more quick question about this, more of a Scala question really:
I've noticed both here and in the examples that there is a tendency to
use flatMap() instead of map(). I understand the differences between
the two, but am not sure why flatMap is preferred when there aren't
Lists involved. Any reason? Aren't the two interchangeable in this
case?
Thanks,
