For a couple reasons:

    -there is (or will be) a "FormBuilder" - which does the actual assembly
of forms, and deals with doing validation using entity manager.

    -You can build extra-fancy custom UI components of your own that do cute
things like pop-up a calendar and place the selected date into a field, or
maybe construct a dependent list of pulldowns from two lists, etc. These can
be very useful when you're building "rich" applications instead of simple
forms.
