For the exact same reasons other projects are moving to CMake too:

- single script for all platforms
- native toolset (make on posix, VC on Win, Xcode on Mac)
- customization installation
- easier integration with rest of project and its dependencies


basically you have the whole team behind CMake that has to worry about
platform differences, you only care about which files to compile
