Some people are claiming it looks better if using a 4K display (I can't confirm this)
It might be just a bit easier to setup and use because you don't need to understand any settings and just simply enable the shader for MAME to use it.
I like that users now have alternatives to use both and can change from both relatively easily by just changing a few settings in mame.ini so they can decide for themselves what they like or enjoy better.
Personally I prefer HLSL since Jezze's changes went in because I just think it looks and functions better on my hardware.
