I guess it saves them having to write a responsive GUI :-)

The worst thing is when you have absolutely no feedback that you've pressed 
the touch screen - I used a terminal to buy a train ticket somewhere like 
that (can't remember where now).  First you had to press the button quite 
hard (harder than you would normally to start with), and then the screen 
didn't show any sign that you'd pressed it until about 2 seconds later when 
it would update the display based on whatever you had selected.  Worst thing 
was that it would buffer up your inputs somehow, so if you hit the same 
button 5 times trying to get it to work, you end up stuck there for 5 
minutes and with 3 1st class tickets for dogs and bikes.
