Default Why not use clicks?

I guess the thing i dont understand with FFP reticles is why use them at all when you can use the clicks on the tactical scopes? My guess would be that a 1/4 moa on the turret would be much more precise then a dot or line on a reticle? Add to this the mathmatical computations needed to determine range vs using a laser and frankly to my point of view they make FFP reticles somewhat archaric and slow.

Is using a FFP kinda like shooting black powder, there is a bet of historical romance attached to it shooting like the old school snipers of the 1969's and 1970's? Once again i understand my comments come with there bias. Since i dont shoot in forrested areas maybe using your reticle is faster in those environments. I dont know.
