The fork mounted hanger can also eliminate the cable noodle and tight cable bends often required for hangers mounted above the headset, as well as adding a convenient cable adjuster.

They also let you reduce stack height.

My yeti has a crazy tall head tube. I used the tektro crown mounted stop so I could slam my stem. Better fit, better cable routing, and no shudder.
