I think this is a very good point! There's not much setting up needed with the DSLR before you can just sit back, look up, and enjoy the view.
As a bonus, you get to see a lot of transient events like meteors. I was out shooting last night and saw a bright meteor streak over about 100 degrees of the sky, with dust/smoke trailing for about 3 degrees behind. Would have completely missed it if I were staring into my laptop screen!
