  Number one it's easier. Not much stereo image from two mics 12 inches apart pointed straight ahead. You might as well have one better mic and a good mono recording. Another benefit is the mic capsules are so close together you don't have to worry about phase issues.
  
  Not to say a spaced pair can't make a good recording but for something that works every time and produces better stereo image I would use xy.

    Maybe you're not familiar with the binaural dummy head. 12" apart is the same dimension as the distance between human ears.

      The human brain does a really good job of putting things in phase. Recording can be trickier. A dead brain probably doesn't make much difference.

          By the time you eat the pudding it's too late.
