The following advantages are decisive: The system code remains untouched by modules and plugins, so that changes on the shop code for installing a module are no longer necessary.
Hookpoints* Shop engine can be updated anytime  
  Adaptations on the shop engine core unnecessary for plugin development  
  Plugins can be fully installed and uninstalled per click  
  Available hookpoints* at every relevant place in the code
