Because the GPS approach is easier to fly - less chance of going to
full-scale deflection.

That's not necessarily correct. How many step-downs are there vs. how many
can you keep in your head? Of course, there can be step-downs to the GS
intercept on an ILS, but none after that (when the localizer is getting
tight).

Personally, I find an ILS to be the easiest type of approach in general
because of its reduced workload. And since one can still cheat with the
GPS providing track and track error, it would be relatively easy to hold
the needle centered (easier still with a WAAS-capable unit, of course {8^).
