Even with playable styles we're somewhat limited to what was played by the musician. If the style fits well, that can be great. If it doesn't fit so well, then MIDI gives more options.

With ever improving synthesis engines, the sound quality of MIDI is closing, maybe sometimes has closed, the gap. If one wants something specific, maybe a sax growl at a particular point and it isn't in the RealTrack, it's going to be pretty tough, I think, to add it convincingly.
