Biggest reason I do it is $$$. An advertisement filled root page slows traffic to deeper pages but increases sales on the root.

Disadvantage, most of the site activity is NOT on the page typically favored most by link/traffic trades and SE attention; it's typically not as preferable for bookmarks and submitters.

Btw, simple, clean warning pages don't seem to effect traffic flow to deeper pages for me. Most surfers click through.
