The difference is that with the n type extensions, you can easily insert a line or three without renumbering lots of lines - and searching for all those GOTOs that also need a new line number. Renumbering error-prone. An advantage of numbering is that the line order is not important, because of course Asterisk would select by number, not order - and possibly (although I did not investigate this) including _parts_ of an extension from another context might work better. All my new extensions use the n style, but I am not going to rewrite the older parts of the dialplan soon.

Renumbering error-prone. In fact the 'n' is just a shortcut for next number and is translated into an actual number when the extensions.conf file is read. If you do show dialplan, you will see all the extensions have numbers, even if you had used 'n'.
