Comment (by grahamarmfield):

 Replying to [comment:40 toscho]:
 > Why do we need another wrapper for `echo`? It clutters the global
 namespace and doesn’t really add any value.

 Discussion of this function has indicated that it could be useful in the
 front end too - ie in themes. Theme developers (such as myself) are
 familiar with the `function()/get_function()` construct (eg `bloginfo()`
 and `get_bloginfo()`). In some cases the string output from this new
 function will be echoed straight to the screen, and in some cases the
 string is to be passed to a variable.

 That is why I did it.

 If WordPress as a whole is moving away from that construct then I wasn't
 aware.
