You can get the speed of e-voting with paper ballots if you tally up the totals twice: once with a scanner when the ballot is put in the box (appropriate design of ballot and box required ofcourse), so you get immediate digital results, and once with manual counting to give the vote legal standing. The fact that only a manually counted result would have legal standing ensures nobody will see the point in tampering with the digital counter. I would agree that there's no reason to have e-voting instead of paper ballots. The only possible excuse I might imagine for e-voting is that it lets people vote from home which enfranchises more voters, but that would just lead to a wave of vote selling so...
