What exactly was wrong with a normal headset and BB?
About all I can think of is no threads to strip in a BB shell and slightly larger weld area on the top tube/downtube join - although I never had any problems with either of those things...

Well that's my take on it too.

make is scary for people to DIY fit/remove.
actually works very well as a fitting solution - lots of things are press fit in situations were threads would be problematic.
and talking of which - threads can cause lots of problems, including alignment problems. Press fit stuff will be perfectly aligned.
+ once fitted you will be less likely to replace the whole lot and resort to buying overpriced replacement bearings that cost more than a new headset.
