Allows you to easily select targets as well as have the gank to kill them. They're only about 2b a pop in a PVP fit. If price is a factor there are many other viable choices.

Cormorant, Merlin, Condor, Incursus, Atron and Griffin. This is, of course, assuming you're doing FW, where you can actually field frigates and not get laughed at. I've seen all of the above do pretty damn well in solo PvP.

And if you've got Gallente and Caldari trained up, I might even suggest the Gila. I've seen some people use those to astonishing effect.

I don't have his reasons, but probably because you can put a more reliable shield tank on it, and it's less suceptible to kiting.

It doesn't have a wasted bonus in the armour rep amount (and lets face it, few people these days solo in slow armour ships). It has a bonus to shield resists, it has the optimal range, making it less kitable, and it has 1 more mid, giving it either more utility, or tank. It has lower damage, but still, so much else going for it.
