More apparent control. You reach a point where the difference is relatively meaningless not too far beyond 1/2 stops.

Bill Robb wrote something that I snipped until this was left:

The Canon rep told me (sorry, not compelling evidence, just anecdotal)
that
they felt accuracy and reliability would be improved by eliminating moving
parts, as much as possible, and that in the long run, it would be cheaper
for manufacture and, consequently, for the consumer to purchase.

The accuracy comment makes sense. With an aperture ring you have detents for
stops and half stops. Anything in between is a guess. Electronic aperture
operation gives the photographer more precise control.
