Because the instrumentation will (probably) always be slightly different for every piece you compose. That gives you the freedom to vary your instrumentation easily as well as pull whichever library suits the needs of the composition while it forcing you to reconfigure routing and mixing minutiae every time. At least, that's what's been working for me lately.
Definitely.
It's also worth mentioning that projects tend to create their own templates over time. That is to say that if you're working in a rhetorical situation, a game soundtrack, an album, what have you, the template will be built around what you've chosen to use for that particular project.
