I think that one advantage of the direct drive mounts with encoders is that the main feedback loop runs at fairly high speed, so they can react quickly to control the effects of wind gusts - regardless of whether or not they are being guided. A conventional mount does not have an equivalent feedback loop, so you must rely on mount stiffness (or an AO) to deal with wind.
