IMHO, I'd say EL is actually harder, but at any rate EL can't completely do what the nested tags can. Like anything recursive. I just had an email conversation with a developer in England that has an app which business data model is a very large data structure. Depending on the level and required feature of the interface, they just have an include file for nested markup at any given level. The root JSP page simply includes the level for the given point and away it goes, regardless of its place in the hierarchy, and it's all updatable to the server because the actual property is made behind the scenes. This is only possible with the nested context being passed in the request. I put an OO-JSP spiel on my site, and this appears to be an extreme implementation of it. I know they're not everyone's cup of tea, but it's a hammer that can hit some pretty wicked nails.
