I do it in example code because I understand it's the Right Way™. I
think it's so that you can delete all the autocmds in the group in
one pass, which is more helpful in plugins rather than when having it
apply globally.

Truth be told, if I'm using them in my vimrc at all, I just use the
raw "au BuffEnter * norm zz" style commands rather than wrapping them
in a augroup. 'cuz I'm lazy like that.
