It's the same benefit as anywhere else. You have two places,
viewDidUnload and dealloc, which perform the exact same action. Rather
than have identical code in both places, where it bloats up your code
and can fall out of sync, you put that code into a separate method,
then call it from the two places where it needs to happen. This is
pretty basic programming.
