When you don't want to create an object simply to hold a custom
property.  For example, if I'm making a quiz to use with students,
I keep their score in a global variable.  If I wanted to use a
custom property I'd have to create an object just for that purpose.
Seems counter-intuitive to me.

Plus, as has been pointed out, it's sooooo easy just to say:
  global gScore
  add 1 to gScore

Custom properties are a little more convoluted.
