The web page (integrit.sf.net) states the main reasons.  integrit is
for people who need a product that uses less memory at runtime (in
version two of integrit you can even turn off mmap to save more
virtual memory) or is less complex.

Using less memory means that integrit can be used on production
machines, and being less complex means that more of your peers will be
willing to use integrit.  (And you'll need less time to learn how to
use it; and integrit won't be as buggy, since it's simpler ...)
