Perhaps the whole chit system came from an essentially board game background (vs. miniatures). My gaming is primarily with miniatures oriented people and players have commented on the profusion of chits. One practical reason to switch to the paper logs is the extra table space required for the ship mats. I think the pictures of Bob's Battle of Lissa game convinced me to switch, at least for larger (convention) games.
