There are a couple of major benefits that haven't yet been mentioned:
* You can open source your scripting code without open sourcing the whole
app. If you believe in the value of the mod community this can be big.
* Vastly shorter (nonexistent?) build times for changes at the scripting level.
* You're forced to think about the API you want to expose to scripting.
Yes, discipline in coding helps, but having the enforced discipline is useful.
