Default Add ins vs. Templates

I have a user who writes VBA code in Templates.
I am trying to convince him to use add-ins instead.

Are there any advantages to using templates (xlt) versus the add-in (xla)
format?

thanks

From a design paradigm, I see templates as part of the user interface, and
so if they have any code, it should only be code required for data input
validation or presentation. It should not be the business logic, that should
be in a separate layer, be it addins, or a VB/.Net process.
