Your fingers stay near home row so you can type faster. Cursor keys are way to far off and differ very much between different keyboards.

What about any benefits of moving your hands around though?

Unless one is a court typist, where wpm matters fully, maybe moving a little and not keeping one's hands on the home row can help avoid carpal tunnel and RSI?
