Not only power consumption, but also for realtime applications, like those used in industrial and automotive control systems.
In such scenarios, the overhead and unpredictability of the OS scheduler is unacceptable. When you want to say isolate a fault exactly 100us after it takes place, you can't have the OS executing that task at some different delay in a nondeterministic fashion.
