Use of the elisp indent-tabs-mode thing sometimes creates whitespace-only changes to lines, which makes it harder to read patches and dig into history. This can happen when you change a line, and then change it back.
That would still happen, whichever your global setting of indent-tabs-mode is, on lines that disagree with it (which exist either way).
The only difference is, with the directory-local setting, the odds of this happening are going to decrease over time.
