Tom, not only does it reduce connector related problems, it is easier to manufacture. Simply glue the chips down to the board and wave solder them using a robot. Of course the soldering and glue makes it a pain to replace them, as you have to cut the leads, break the chip off the board, and then desolder each lead from the board. Not fun. I had to do it exactly twice, and will never, EVER, do it again. The Four Seasons of Southern California: Fire, Flood, Earthquake, and Riot.
