The main reason is that I have a relevant amount of Delphi/Kylix code 
using Delphi's Sockets unit. That way porting that code to Lazarus 
becomes trivial.
Secondly my applications typically involve point-to-point connections in 
a production environment. Upstream machine must communicate with 
downstream machine, end of line machine must send production data to a 
dedicated server, and so on. I need to transparently handle failures 
such as a server side being temporary down. All of that in the hands of 
unskilled operators.
Lighter and simpler code, makes it easier both to develop and to debug.
