What is the advantage of using this service over hitting Google's RESTful Spreadsheet API directly?

It's easier.

Could you explain what you mean by easier?

You don't have to implement Google API or use any lib to talk with it. Just paste link and get API end-point with docs, which is easier to use. Much more easier than creating your app at Google Console, connecting with it, etc. Especially if you are not a programmer.
