I think it has some layout advantages, too.
My institution at the university still uses thinnet, and after some thought, I
can see why. After all, 10Base2 requires no additional hardware, and just one
cable to be run into each room. Each room has got its own 10Base2 segment
which goes to a central repeater (plugged into a thicknet backbone bridging
the gap to the main complex). Thus, only a central hub is requires, and just
one cable for each room, without there being too many workstations on one
segment for it to make the network vulnerable.
10BaseT may be neater, but also more technically involved.
