#1. It's the same amount of connections if you pigtail the outlet like
you should.
#2. It makes the work at the outlet a lot easier especially if you're
using 12ga wire like you should be.


I work with #12 almost exclusively -- it's not hard to use with the outlet
boxes. I personaly don't see anything wrong with 'daisy chaining' using the
outlet's screws -- frankly I think a screw connection is probably more
reliable than a wire nut. But I realize not everyone thinks this way...
