I use \starttable all over the place. The reason is that it is (or maybe was) the only one that supported \VL (tabulate didn't support \VL), while \bTABLE ... \eTABLE has really awfull spacing between cells (too much vertical spacing and too little horizontal one). It definitely depends on usage, but in many cases \starttable was the only choice for me. It seems weird to simply get rid of it at once and for no particular reason. (I don't care if it doesn't support colors.)
