It can make it easier and faster to create applications ... but it also
means you're relying on someone else's building blocks, which may not
be as efficient or as fast as they could / should be. That probably
doesn't matter so much with today's fast computers, unless you're
trying to do something that requires high speed or direct hardware
access.

In some cases those building blocks may not allow you to do what you
want to do, which in Apple's case is purposely done to keep the system
safer.
