It seems to me like it's trying to unify exporting and tangling: this
emphasizes that tangling is just another (very specific plain-text) form
of exporting. Using Eric's function for exporting allows me to remove
lots of boilerplate code from the source org file and keep the org
source better focused on the code's function and structure.
Sure it's weird, but it sure is handy.
