The best reason, is that the diff does not need to be opened up to replace the axle or boots. The axle is bolted to a flange that stays in the diff. Just unbolt the axle from the flange to re-boot or replace. Yes they are probably made in China (like most everything nowadays), but the quality seems to be good.

On those axles People have reported that within a Month or 2 the Bolts that hold the annular section start to come loose.
You can remove the Bolts one at a time and make sure the threads are degreased and dry and apply Loctite to the Threads and re-install the Bolts.
I don't remember what is in the below thread:
