2. How about some reasons: Medium format cameras are fun to use, they don't need batteries, they are less expensive than they've ever been- within reach of many people who have wanted one for a long time, most of them are extremely well built and will outlive most photographers, there are tons of different kinds of MF cameras with lots of specialty features, they're more convenient to use than large format, the use medium format film which is also fun, most of them are very simple yet capable and highly customizable, and how about the number one reason: because he wants to.
It's kind of like comparing a new Honda Accord to a 1936 Mercedes-Benz 500K. The Honda is in pretty much every way a "better" car- more powerful, faster, more comfortable, more reliable, tons of high-tech toys; but ultimately it lacks the style, precision, and outright fun to drive that make the 500K one of the greatest cars of all time.
