I'd think a primary driver would be for the advantages of imperative

As long as everyone can see the flaws here, it's cool. I would expect
most can.
Lack of exception handling and escaping is, IMO, acceptable in code
snippets. Although using <%: isn't too much of a burden.
OTOH, real code extracts/samples posted for edumacation should include
it. The interwebs are full of poorly constructed/documented code
which is just picked up and used. Don't get ne wrong, there's plenty
of good stuff too!
As for the use of such imperative code, each to their own. What would
you do if Model.Customers it customer.Name was null?
