It's not 'rather than', it's 'in addition to' :) Imagine you and I are working on a problem together, you have IPython open and you get the plot windows on your desk. You'd like to discuss something about the data with me (I'm away in California, not at your desk), so I open an IPython client that connects to your kernel, and start getting on my frontend the static versions of all the plots. You have the full windows on your desktop which zoom and pan, but with a simple 'show()' I can get static snapshots of all the figures on my desk, while we both work with and control the same kernel. That could be useful, no?
