The only real argument I think you can make is that it might be more efficient to have a neural network quickly spit out an approximate solution instead of solving the actual equations.

But if you have the time having the actual equations is more valuable?

Assuming that "having the actual equations" is possible, which in market predictions it most likely is not.
