If I'm going in a cave almost everytime I still need an oil lamp. Bringing there electricity can be far more costly.
Yes for a solution for arbitrarily large networks cn=config could be more scalable and cheaper. But that's not true for a small server for a small organization that doesn't need the extra complexity.
I don't want to understate the pros of cn=config, I just state my opinion about the cons. If you tell me the maintaining slapd.conf is too costly in terms of developers energies I've nothing to say. But I don't agree that cn=config is always better.
