Maybe if you're using a tileset with transparency there would be no need for this sort of style.
It opens up a few avenues, but I would argue it closes more. It's an ok style but I think it should be used in moderation (like on buildings which already use that sort of perspective). It bothers me that this shortcut is used on every bit of the level designs on some servers. There's nothing wrong with it I guess, but it's not as good.
