The point is, that you can have your big fat dead-guy units out there, and still load up on elites. What most people miss is the spiritseer; big deal, your warlocks cost 8 points more? I'll skip it, thanks!
But the spiritseer allows you to beef up those wraithlords by giving them automatic cover saves against those ratling snipers and lascannons while they rush across the open towards the Leman Russ, or give them (lol) WS 5 and I5 when they finally get there. Plus the ability to attach a warlock to an elite unit, thus giving them auto-cover, or WS5/I6, or rerolled pinning tests (great for Banshees!), or augmenting the unit with a heavy flamer attack. That is WAY cooler than the altered force org chart. Use it!
