One advantage would be the ability to use vim registers to copy text from one buffer to another instead of having to go through tmux or screen. Another would be word or line completion in a given buffer using contents in another buffer. In general, by running multiple vim instances instead of a single vim instance, you lose the opportunity to leverage vim to manage multiple buffers by using information in a given buffer.
