Way simpler to integrate into your project. If there are multiple options, I'll chose the single header lib any day. If there aren't and the library turns out to be cumbersome to integrate, I may just reinvent the wheel or do something different. E.g., I'd never ever integrate boost ever again into any of my projects and just reinvent the wheel instead or just not do whatever would have required boost.

This was harder to say back in 2003, but these days a lot of boost is already integrated into standard c++ anyway. We already have refcounting smart pointers, a unified threading model, ways of handling datetime, etc.
