Units (Work) without Resources

I've noticed that in both P6 and MSP, values for Units (Work) are generated by assigning a Resource. 

It's also possible to it is possible to directly enter a value for Units (Work) without assigning a Resource. 

The latter method seems to behave much better when extending/shortening planned durations. 

 

Both methods contribute to the 'cumulative units' outputs that are possible with P6 and MSP. 

Is there any reason why I would want to generate my Units by assigning a resource, if I don't plan on doing any resource levelling on this particular schedule?
